Yes. For example, the lines x=7, x=-1, and x=145 all have an undefined slope; they are all vertical.

The Slope is Undefined, the line is vertical


What is an undefined slope on a graph?

An undefined slope on a graph occurs when a line is vertical, meaning it runs straight up and down. In this case, the change in the x-coordinate is zero, which makes the slope calculation (rise over run) impossible, as division by zero is undefined. As a result, vertical lines do not have a defined slope.


Why can't all linear equations be written using point slope?

Because of undefined slope, because undefined slope does not have a slope it doesn't have anything to substitute for m in the point slope equation.


Does in linear graphs the slope of the line change with the x coordinate?

In a linear graph the slope is the same everywhere, assuming vertical line graphs are not allowed. Depending on context, a vertical line (say x = 3) is not always allowed. If the graph is a vertical line then the slope is infinite at the single value of x. (That would be 3 in the example above.) The slope would then be undefined elsewhere.

How do you graph a linear equation slope intercept?

Does in linear graphs the slope of the line change with the x-coordinate?

No. A linear graph has the same slope anywhere.

How does the graph of an exponential function differ from the graph of a linear function and how is the rate of change different?

The graph of a linear function is a line with a constant slope. The graph of an exponential function is a curve with a non-constant slope. The slope of a given curve at a specified point is the derivative evaluated at that point.


What is the slope of a speed time linear graph?

The slope of a speed-time linear graph represents acceleration. If the line is flat (zero slope), the object is moving at a constant speed. A positive slope indicates acceleration, while a negative slope represents deceleration.


Please help -- How does the slope and y-intercept change if you reverse the x and y axis of a linear graph. Will the graph still be linear?

If it was linear to start with it will still be linear. The slope will change to its reciprocal. The y-intercept will be unchanged (but it will look different)
