Slope formula (m = slope):

       y₂ - y₁

m = ----------

       x₂ - x₁

Coordinates:

(5, 1)

(5, -2)

Solve by substitution:

       -2 - 1

m = ---------

       5 - 5

      -3

m = ----

       0

m = ∞

This is true because, when y₁ ≠ y₂ and x₁ = x₂, the slope is ∞ (infinity).

Hope this helps!
