Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-2,5) and (-2,-5)
The slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) can be calculated using the formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Given the points (-2,5) and (-2,-5), we have:
x1 = -2, y1 = 5
x2 = -2, y2 = -5
Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
m = (-5 - 5) / (-2 - (-2))
m = (-10) / 0
The slope of the line passing through the points (-2,5) and (-2,-5) is undefined because division by zero is not defined. This means that the line is a vertical line.
