Answer
The provided statement is false. The true statement is “Vertical lines cannot be expressed in slope-intercept form”.
Work Step by Step
It is known that the slope intercept form of a line is , where m is slope of the line and c is intercept point on y-axis when .
Also, slope-intercept form consists of x and y so, every equation of a line in the rectangular coordinate system has an equation that can be expressed in slope-intercept form.
But any two points on a vertical line have the same -coordinate. So, slope cannot be computed by the help of the formula as division by zero is undefined.
Hence, provided statement is false.
