If and , the slope is , because then
the two given points would have different x-coordinates,
and the same .
I believe that would be the expected answer.
If , then and the two points are the same point,
and since there are infinite lines going through a point,
the slope could be any number,
or it could be undefined (if the line is the vertical line ).
If , then is undefined, and the point (1/a^2,2b) does not exist.
