Question

How do you find a standard form equation for the line with ( -10 , 4) Slope: m is undefined?

Answer 1

See the entire solution explanation below:

Explanation:

If the slope is undefined then this is a vertical line where `x` is always the same value, `-10` in this case, for any and all values of `y`. The equation for this line is:

`x = -10`

The standard form of a linear equation is: `color(red)(A)x + color(blue)(B)y = color(green)(C)`

where, if at all possible, `color(red)(A)`, `color(blue)(B)`, and `color(green)(C)`are integers, and A is non-negative, and, A, B, and C have no common factors other than 1

Therefore, for this problem the standard form of the equation is:

`color(red)(1)x + color(blue)(0)y = color(green)(-10)`
