Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-4, 0) and (-4, -10)? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer:

        There is no slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

$slope=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

It means that for a line passing through two points to have the slope, the x-coordinates of these point have to be different.

(-4, 0) and (-4, -10) means x₁ = x₂ = -4, so there is no slope.

{the line is parallel to Y-axis, and has an equation:  x=-4}
