Why does a horizontal have a slope of 0, but a vertical line has an undefined slope?

Mathematics
1 answer:
miskamm [114]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: The slope of a vertical line. A vertical line has undefined slope because all points on the line have the same x-coordinate. As a result the formula used for slope has a denominator of 0, which makes the slope undefined.

A horizontal line has slope 0 because all its points have the same y-coordinate. As a result, the formula used for slope evaluates to 0.

Hope that helps!

harina [27]

<u>Answer</u><u>: </u>

Required integer is -12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Required number is integer.

Required integer is less than zero

greater than -13.

When number is substracted from -11, result is positive.

To Find:

The integer=?

Solution:

Lets assume required integer = x

As Required integer is less than zero and greater than -13 ,  

-13 < x < 0     ------(1)

Also when number is subtracted from -11, result is positive.  

=>  -11 – x > 0

=> -11 > x   -------(2)  

So form 1 and 2  

-13 < x < -11 that is x is an integer which is less than -11 and greater than -13.  There is only one integer between -13 and -11 that is -12.

Hence required integer is -12.
