Question

Identify the slope of the line shown in the graph below: (1 point) Graph of a vertical line with an x intercept of 3 slope = undefined slope = 0 slope = 3 slope = 1 Description

Answer 1

If the line is going straight up, then the slope is undefined. If the slope is horizontal then the slope is 0.

Answer 2

Answer:

Undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

A vertical line has an undefined slope.

Slope is a measure of the rate of change of the line.  It is represented on a graph as rise/run.

In a vertical line, the rise can be measured, and the run is 0.  This is because it is vertical; it does not go over any at all.

This gives us a fraction over 0; since we cannot divide by 0, the slope is undefined.
