To find slope, use (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to get a numerical value. Slope is "m" in the formula y = mx + b.
Now, plug one of the points into the equation y=mx+b to solve for b.
You have m & b. Put them into slope-intercept form.
We'll be glad to check your answer if you show your work.
Write the equation of the line passing through (2,-3) and (2,4). Write the answer in slope-intercept form.

Oh, sorry about that.
The line is vertical. You can see this by sketching a quick graph and plotting the two points. Therefore, its slope is undefined. Since the line is vertical, the equation will be in the form x = ___.
