write equations for (a) the horzional line and (b) the vertical line that contain the givin points. Z(2,-11)

OpenStudy (barrycarter):

In a horizontal line, y remains constant. In a vertical line, x remains constant. Thus: x= 2 and y= -11

can u explain how to solve it to me please and show the answer

OpenStudy (radar):

barrycarter explained it very well. A vertical line has the formula x=a is a constant. In this case since the point Z is on this line the vertical line would be x=2 and y can have any value you want. The horizontal line has the formula y=a where a is a constant. In this case it is given y=-11. So the formula is y=-11

OpenStudy (radar):

You are solving it by understanding the formula of the vertical and horizontal line, and using the values in the Point Z
