Question

Choose the equation of the vertical line passing through the point (-2, 3).

y = 3

x = 3

y = -2

x = -2

Question 10 (Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)

[4_05]Choose the equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (-5, 1).

y = -5

x = 1

y = 1

x = -5

Answer 1

In general, the equation of the vertical line that passes through the point (a,b) will be x = a

In this case, the equation of the vertical line that passes through the point (-2,3) will be:
x = -2

In general, the equation of horizontal line that passes through the point (a,b) will be:
y = b

In this case, the equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (-5,1) will be:
y = 1
