Find the slope of the line passing through the points:
(4, 7) and (4, 5).


The formula for this is:



So, plug in your values to get:



Subtract:



But wait! You can't divide by zero! When you run into a problem like this where the denominator turns out to be zero, the slope is indefinite, because the line goes straight up. So, the answer is indefinite.
