- Conclusion: Since is always 1, the equation is . This is a vertical line.
- Slope Check: (Undefined), confirming it's vertical.
💡 Strategic Tip: If the x-coordinates are the same, it's . If y-coordinates are the same, it's .
Choice B is incorrect because values change. Choice C is incorrect because it only fits one point. Choice D is incorrect because x is 1, not 3.
