• Coordinates (x, y)
• Slope Formula: $\displaystyle m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

Point (6, 8)

Point (6, 6)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:                                                              $\displaystyle m = \frac{6-8}{6-6}$
2. [Fraction] Subtract:                                                                                           $\displaystyle m = \frac{-2}{0}$
3. Simplify:                                                                                                             m = undefined

∴ We have a vertical line at x = 6.
