Question

What is the slope of the line passing through points (-8,5) (-8,-8)

Answer 1

Undefined.

Explanation:

SLOPE FORMULA:

`\rightarrow \displaystyle \mathsf{(Y_2-Y_1)/(X_2-X_1)=(RISE)/(RUN)  }}`

y₂= (-8)

y₁=5

x₂=(-8)

x₁=(-8)

Solve & simplify.

`\displaystyle \mathsf{((-8)-5)/((-8)-(-8))=(-13)/(0)=\boxed{\mathsf{0}}  }}`

Therefore, the slope is undefined.
