Solved by pluggable solver: Finding the slope


Slope of the line through the points (1, 3) and (1, -1)



m+=+%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+x%5B1%5D%29


m+=+%28-1+-+3%29%2F%281+-+1%29


m+=+%28-4%29%2F%280%29


Since you CANNOT divide by 0, this means that the slope of the line is undefined.


Answer: The slope of the line is undefined.

see we have to find the slope of (1,3) and (1,-1)
formula: m(slope) = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-1-3)/(1-1)
= -4/0
so -4/0 is the slope
