Hello could you please help me with this problem? Write an equation in standard form for the line that has an undefined slope and passes through (5,-3).

Answer:

[tex]-3=5m+b[/tex]

Explanation: We have to write the equation od line in a standard form that has an unknown slope and passes through (5,-3), in general, the equation of a line is as follows:'

[tex]\begin{gathered} y(x)=mx+b\Rightarrow(1) \\ m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \\ b\rightarrow\text{ y-intercept} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Passing through a point implies the following:

[tex](x,y)\Rightarrow(5,-3)[/tex]

Plugging the x and y in (1) finally gives the following:

[tex]-3=5m+b[/tex]
