EXAMPLE 2 Find a negative slope Find the slope of the line shown. m = y 2 – y 1 x 2 – x 1 Let (x 1, y 1 ) = (3, 5) and (x 2, y 2 ) = (6, –1). –1 – 5 6 – 3 = – 6 3 = = –2–2 Write formula for slope. Substitute. Simplify.

EXAMPLE 3 Find the slope of a horizontal line Find the slope of the line shown. Let (x 1, y 1 ) = (–2, 4) and (x 2, y 2 ) = (4, 4). m = y 2 – y 1 x 2 – x 1 4 – 4 4 – (–2) = 0 6 = = 0 Write formula for slope. Substitute. Simplify.

EXAMPLE 4 Find the slope of a vertical line Find the slope of the line shown. Let (x 1, y 1 ) = (3, 5) and (x 2, y 2 ) = (3, 1). m = y 2 – y 1 x 2 – x 1 Write formula for slope. 1 – 5 3 – 3 = Substitute. Division by zero is undefined. ANSWER Because division by zero is undefined, the slope of a vertical line is undefined. – 4 0 =
