Solution

The slope of a line is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x (also known as rise over run). When the slope of a line is undefined, it means the denominator (change in x) is zero. This happens when you have a vertical line, where all x-values are the same.

Let's check each pair of points:

A. (0,0) and (2,2): The change in x is 2 - 0 = 2, so the slope is not undefined.

B. (3,0) and (2,0): The change in x is 2 - 3 = -1, so the slope is not undefined.

C. (-2,0) and (-2,5): The change in x is -2 - (-2) = 0, so the slope is undefined.

D. (-2,0) and (0,-2): The change in x is 0 - (-2) = 2, so the slope is not undefined.

So, the pair of points that lie on a line with an undefined slope is C. (-2,0) and (-2,5).
