@hartnn Can you help me?

hartnn · Answer

the equation of line through (x1,y1) and slope m is
(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

anonymous · Answer

I've got y-5= ? (x-3) What do I do when there is no slope? Do I leave it blank?

hartnn · Answer

no slope means n= infinity, which means its a vertical line .
vertical line have the form of x=c
so here what is x value?

anonymous · Answer

3. So the slope would be the equivalent of 3 in this equation?

hartnn · Answer

no, no slope is infinite, x=3 is the equation of the line.

Oh, I get it now! Thanks!
