Question 640464: Find the general form of the equation of the line that passes through the given point and has an indicated slope.
Point: (6,-1)
Slope: m is undefined (slope is undefined)

Since the slope is undefined, you have a vertical line. Therefore all points on the line have the same -coordinate. It is sufficient to describe the line by setting equal to the -coordinate of the point through which the line passes.
