Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-7, -7) and (-7, 1)? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer:

undefined, stays on x so straight vertical - vertical line is undef slope

Answer 2

Answer: The slope is undefined  

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is calculated using the formula :

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$x_{1}$ = -7

$x_{2}$ = -7

$y_{1}$ = -7

$y_{2}$ = 1

Substituting the values into the formula , we have :

m = $\frac{1-(-7)}{-7-(-7)}$

m = $\frac{8}{0}$

m = undefined
