This is not a straight line rather number line.

Equations with two variables produce graphs that are lines.  If the line on the graph
is straight, then it has one slope at every point on it.  If the line on the graph has any
curves in it, then it has different slopes at different points on it.  That's for equations
with two variables.

The equation in this question only has one variable, and it only produces a number . . . the number that 'x' must be in order to make the equation a true statement.  It's
not too hard to find:

<span><u>5 + 2x = 2 + 3x</u></span>

Subtract 2x from each side:

5 = 2 + x

Subtract 2 from each side:

<u>3 = x</u>

And that's it.  'x' is 3.

If you want to graph that, then what you get is a vertical line on the graph. 
It crosses the x-axis at the point where 'x' is 3 .

The slope of a vertical line is 'undefined', just like the slope of a brick wall. 
That means that some people would look at it and call it "infinity", but in real
math, it's just 'undefined' ... it has no name at all.

HELP Can you determine the third angle measure in a triangle, if you know the other two angles?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

yes; you can just remember that all the angles on a triangle equal 180 so just add the two angles, subtract from 180 to get your last angle degrees.

Can someone help me find the slope?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

First, take 2 points from the table given, then you use the equation y2-y1/x2-x1 to find your slope. So, if I take the coordinates (7,1) and (7,2) and plug them into my equation, I would get 2-1/7-7. If you solve this equation, you will end up wil 1/0. Now, if you have something like this as your answer, you can not find your slope. There can not be a slope because the zero is at the bottom, making this "Undefined".
