hartnn · Answer

The slope of the line through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by :
$\huge m=\frac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}$
now,just put the values and find m.

so the first one would be 6/0 which would be 0? and the second one would be 0/-16 :/

hartnn · Answer

anything/0 is not defined.
so first slope is not defined
0/anything = 0
so second slope = 0
got this ?

anonymous · Answer

okay

anonymous · Answer

So the first one is undefined, the second is 0?

hartnn · Answer

yes, thats what i said.
