Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-8, 8) and (-8, - 2).
The formula for finding the slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Using the given points (-8, 8) and (-8, -2), we can plug in these values:
m = (-2 - 8) / (-8 - (-8))
m = (-10) / 0
Since division by 0 is undefined, the slope of the line passing through the points (-8, 8) and (-8, -2) is undefined. This means that the line is vertical.
