What is the relationship between a slope of 2 and an undefined slope? *The Slope of 2 is Larger *The Undefined Slope is Larger *The both have the Same Slope *The Relationship Cannot be Determined I want to say that it's d, but the undefined slope has a bigger rise. Can anyone help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't see how it can be the third. One line has a slope of 2 and the other has an undefined slope. Those are clearly different.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am stuck between choices 2 and 4.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't feel so strongly toward choice 2, but I am not confident that its d at the same time. The other 2 choices can be easy eliminated.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for an undefined slope you've got a line parallel to the y axis giving us a=number/0 which is infinity so yes the value is greater but we do not know where is infinity so we tend to use limits so i would say its

4

One sec, just finishing questions that I can do in the matter of seconds each.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but at last both 2 and 4 are correct that depends if you've taken derivatives...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which one is better for a course like algebra 1 or 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*fixed my wording

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It was d, thank you!

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

You cannot say that "undefined slope has bigger rise". If it is bigger, it must be defined. You might be tempted to say that rising infinitely quickly is greater slope than a slope of 2. This is not correct. The definition of slope depends on the line not being vertical. If it is vertical, you cannot tell the difference between rising infinitely quickly or falling infinitely quickly. Definitely D.

you mean calculus 1 or 2 😂🙈
