OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
which one is *your* answer?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the first on XD
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
let's check
\[\text{slope} = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\]
\[\text{slope} = \frac{0 - 0}{4 - (-6)}\]
is this what you did?

oh!!!! I thought that when ever you had zero it was undefined
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohhh!!!
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
haha ironic isnt it...back in middle school people memorize that 0 divided by anything is 0...then undefined is introduced and they get confused :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
