Answer:

The slope of a line that is perpendicular to the x-axis ​is undefined.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the x-axis is a horizontal line.

  • We also know a line that is perpendicular to the x-axis ​is basically a vertical line.
  • As the slope of a perpendicular line is undefined because no matter what the value of y is, the x-value remains the same.

Therefore, the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the x-axis ​is undefined.

For example, the slope between (1, 2) and (1, 4) is:

Using the slope formula

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

                 = [4 - 2] / [1 - 1]

                  = 2 / 0

                  = ∞

With scientific notation remember this rule; if the exponent is positive, move the decimal point that many places to the right. If it is negative move it that many places to the left. What that will do is make the number larger or smaller to the correct value.
 
So for example, if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^4 you would move the decimal four places to the right. So you would end up with 10200. 
As another example if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^-2 you would move the decimal two places to the left. That would give you .0120. 

So now we are onto your problem. 2.606 x 10^7.
You would move the decimal seven places to the right, because the exponent is positive, that will make your number larger(which would make more sense if you were adding populations, right?).
That would give you 26,060,000 people living in Texas.
From there simply add the two populations together and you will have your answer!
