the pair points are (6,-2) and (10,-1) what would its verticle slope be? -2?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

didn't you ask this before?

OpenStudy (aripotta):

you mean, slope? it's not a vertical line. vertical lines have the same x value

OpenStudy (anonymous):

see slope of the line is different than what u mean by verticle...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah but i have to find the verticle slope of it. i didnt know i thought it was just asking what the vertcle slope was in general. but i have to find the verticle slope of those points. and yes i meant verticle slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

as for the slope here it is (-1+2)/(10-6)=1/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/4 isnt an option

OpenStudy (aripotta):

but it's not vertical slope...because it's not a vertical line...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for vertical line the slope is always infinity...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but is the answer for ur vetical quetion is -2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

same for verticle line?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

you never know...there could really exist a "vertical slope"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

but if i were to guess....subtract -1 - (-2)

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

vertical slope may mean vertical component of the slope

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

which is -1 - (-2)
