That means its a verticle line, so M is undefined and B is -2.

Thank you! So you're basically saying, that y is 0 (which makes the slope undefined)

That vertical line has no y intercept As said, you don't put that in y=mx+b |

The textbooks are the problem. At my old school they taught absolutely nothing and didn't help me understand the material. That's why I switched to online schooling. @DragonRider I know the feeling of just wanting that class to end and not paying attention. I recommend this nice little calculator for help http://www.mathway.com/. It will give you answers to your problems for all different Math subjects. You can use it to check your work, or go against your teachers wishes and use it to do problems for you and not learn at all. |

I don't see a point in Standard Form. Why not write it in point slope or slope intercept? You have to rewrite either one of the slope forms to get standard, so I don't see a point. Ax+Ay=C |
