Question 42241: I got to find the slop of the line through the following pairs of points


(-5 , -3 ) and (-5, 2)

We can go through the calculation for slope...that is, slope m is found by
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
but if you graph these points, you notice it draws a vertical line, one with infinite or undetermined slope...anyway...
m = (2 - -3) / (-5 - -5)
m = 5 / 0
which of course cannot be...
