Who’s right? And why?

We are given 2 points that the line passes through, so we can determine its slope by using this formula:

However, there's a shortcut.

If you look at the two points, you will see that the x-coordinates of these 2 points are the same.

Let's plug in the numbers and see what we get:

Subtract:

Do you see what I see?

Remember, we cannot divide by zero, because division by 0 is

undefined.

Thus, the slope of the line is also undefined.

Now, is Phoebe right? Yes, sure!

The slope of the given line is undefined.

Here's something you should remember:

If we are given 2 points, and their x-coordinates are the same, then the slope of the line is undefined.

If we are given 2 points, and their y-coordinates are the same, then the slope of the line is 0.

Hope it helps! Enjoy your day!
