Q. 22 - Precalculus Enhanced with Graphing Utilities

Question

Plot each pair of points and determine the slope of the line containing them. Graph the line by hand. 

$(2,0);(2,2)$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The slope of the line is undefined and the graph is 

Step 1. Given Information

The given points are $(2,0);(2,2)$

Step 2. Calculation

Use the slope formula to find the slope of the line between the given points.

$$\begin{gathered} m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ =\frac{2-0}{2-2} \\ =\infty \end{gathered}$$

Step 3. Graph

The line is graphed by drawing a line passing through the points.
