How do you find the slope intercept and standard forms of a line when the slope is undefined and you are given the coordinates 2 and 4?
When the slope is undefined, you know the line has to be vertical. Vertical lines only have an x in their equations. When you have the coordinates (2,4) with a vertical line, the equation for the slope intercept AND standard form would be the same thing: x=2
Does every line has a slope and a y-intercept?
A vertical line has neither.
How do you write an equation with and undefined slope?
Any vertical line has an undefined slope. The equation of the vertical line is x = a where the x-intercept is a.
How do you find the slope when you have the y-intercept and one point?
Draw a straight line from the intercept to the given point. Under this line form a right angle triangle with the line being its hypotenuse. The vertical units of the triangle divided by the horizontal units will be the slope of the straight line.
What slope does a vertical line have?
In terms of the slope intercept form of the line, it is undefined. A vertical line is not a function since a single value of x is mapped onto infinitely many y values.
How do you find a negative slope intercept of a vertical line?
A vertical line does not have a slope - negative or positive. It is not defined. A vertical line has no y intercept and, if its equation is x = c (for some number c), then the x-intercept is (c, 0).
Explain why the equation of a vertical line cannot be in slope-intercept form?
A vertical line on a graph has an infinite slope, and no y-intercept.
What is the slope intercept form when a vertical line is passing through 5 -8?
The slope of a vertical line is undefined and so there cannot be a slope-intercept form of the equation.
How do you find the slope intercept and standard forms of a line when the slope is undefined and you are given the coordinates 2 and 4?
When the slope is undefined, you know the line has to be vertical. Vertical lines only have an x in their equations. When you have the coordinates (2,4) with a vertical line, the equation for the slope intercept AND standard form would be the same thing: x=2
What is b in the slope intercept form?
b is where the line on the graph intercepts the y axis ( The vertical Line ) in a slope intercept equation
Does every line has a slope and a y-intercept?
A vertical line has neither.
How do you write an equation with and undefined slope?
Any vertical line has an undefined slope. The equation of the vertical line is x = a where the x-intercept is a.
Does every non vertical line have a slope and a y-intercept?
Yes.
Slope of vertical line?
y=mx+B where m = SLOPE and b= y-intercept
How do you find the slope when you have the y-intercept and one point?
Draw a straight line from the intercept to the given point. Under this line form a right angle triangle with the line being its hypotenuse. The vertical units of the triangle divided by the horizontal units will be the slope of the straight line.
What slope does a vertical line have?
In terms of the slope intercept form of the line, it is undefined. A vertical line is not a function since a single value of x is mapped onto infinitely many y values.
What is the slope of the line x equals -3?
x = -3 produces a vertical straight line parallel to the y axis with an x intercept at -3. A vertical line has an infinite (undefined) slope.
