Undefined

The equation of a line in standard form is:

$y = m x + b$ $y="m"x+b$

Where $m$ $"m"$ is our slope
$b$ $b$ is our y-intercept

In our case we are only given $x = 6$ $x=6$
$x = 6$ $x=6$ is a vertical line therefore the slope is undefined.

There is no slope.

It is a straight vertical line that is just like a wall.
