Find an equation of the vertical line passing through the point (5, 3). x=? and how do you do it!?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

vertical line is going to be x=something, so for this (x,y) pair it's x=5.

OpenStudy (allyson):

hero (hero):

Plot the point (5,3) and draw a vertical line through it. Label the vertical line x = 5

OpenStudy (allyson):

okay i think i get it,. thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

every point on a vertical line has the same x-coordinate, so its equation is x=a, where a can be any real number.
