Respuesta :

The formula of a slope:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We have:

[tex](-3,\ 9)\to x_1=-3,\ y_1=9\\(-3,\ -5)\to x_2=-3,\ y_2=9[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]m=\dfrac{-5-9}{-3-(-3)}=\dfrac{-14}{-3+3}=\dfrac{-14}{0}\ \ \ \boxed{!!!!!}[/tex]

Answer: The slope is indefinite

Hi there! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]SLOPE=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{(-5)-9}{(-3)-(-3)}=\frac{-5-9}{-3+3}=\frac{-14}{0}=0[/tex]

Undefined.

Slope is 0.

Final answer is 0.

Hope this helps!
