Help. How do I solve this. Will medal. Indicate in standard form the equation of the line passing through the given point and having the given slope. E(3, 5), m = undefined

OpenStudy (sagewilson):

I know the formula for this is Y1 - 5 = M (X1 - 3-)

OpenStudy (loser66):

slope undefined means vertical line.

OpenStudy (sagewilson):

So the slope would be 0?

OpenStudy (loser66):

and vertical line passing through (3,5) is x =3

OpenStudy (sagewilson):

or would it just stay undefined?

OpenStudy (loser66):

slope =0 is NOT undefined slope

OpenStudy (loser66):

slope =0 means horizontal line.

OpenStudy (sagewilson):

oh, okay.

OpenStudy (mrnood):

a vertical line means that the X value does not change. You know tha value of X for 1 point THAT is the value of x for all points
