HELP PLEASE! Find the slope and the intercepts of each line. x= -3

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hint: any equation in the form x = k will be a vertical line

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

k is any number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

slope is 0

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

no, the slope is not 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Slope is undefined, because x=c is not a function. It will cross the x axis at -3 but never cross the y axis.

@WaffleTheEpic Oh ok! So the y is 0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, y is 0.

OpenStudy (precal):

slope is undefined because it is a vertical line you do not have a y intercept since it does not cross the y axis
