Question 270863: write the equation in slope-intercept form that has a slope that is undefined and passes through the point (-3,5). Found 2 solutions by Stitch, solver91311:Answer by Stitch(470) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! When the slope is undefined, you have a verticle line. In that case, your equation is just X = -3.
A line with an undefined slope is a vertical line. Vertical lines have the property that the -coordinates of all points on the line are identical. Since your line passes through the point (3-,5), which has an -coordinate of -3, all other points on this line must also have an -coordinate of -3. The equation that properly describes this relationship is:
In other words, give me all of the ordered pairs where is -3 and I don't care what is.
