Can somebody please just help me? I really need help.... Find the slope-intercept form of the equation that goes through these two points. (1,20) and (1,4.5)
Start by finding the slope \[\LARGE \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=slope\] \[\LARGE \frac{4.5-20}{1-1}=slope\] Find the slope
15.5/0?
@pooja195
Wow i didn't realize what the end would be o-o infinty can't be a slope.... @sleepyjess ? @rvc
this is hard :/
x values are the same so its a vertical line
Yes ma'am / sir but how would I find the slope-intercept?
I don't believe you can get the slope intercept form if the slope is dividing by 0 your equation would be \(x = (number)\) to know what this number is, just look at the x values of the points they gave what are the x values of the points? :)
are they 1?
that's correct ^_^ so your answer should be x = 1
what? really? that's it?
yep but only because when you tried to find the slope - it was dividing by zero :)
Find the slope-intercept form of the equation that goes through these two points. (1,20) and (1,4.5) my Answer~ x=1
does that sound like the right answer?
nope because it is asking for slope-intercept form ^_^ but with the points given, that's the only answer that works
yes x=1 is correct
oh..yea, technically, it isn't the slope intercept form,
So that's what I need to put as the answer? x=1?
@baru and @jigglypuff314
Question makes no sense, ask your teacher.
Yes, put x=1 as ur answer If possible, add a note saying that we cannot put this line in slope intercept form, because its a vertical line. Vertical lines do not have a y intercept and have a slope of infinity.
