Question

Slope of (-7, -5) and (-7, -7)

Answer 1

Answer:

Infinity

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope or gradient is given as the ratio of change of y axis in respect to change in x axis. Therefore,

m=∆y÷∆x

Where ∆y in given by y2-y1 and ∆x is equal to x2-x1

Taking point 1 to be (-7, -5) while point 2 is (-7, -7) then

∆y=-7--5=-2

∆x=-7--7=0

Therefore, the gradient will be -2÷0

Any number divided by zero is infinite. Therefore, the slope of these two points is infinite.
