Question

Find an equation for the line with the given properties.
Vertical line; containing the point (-9,-2)

Answer 1

x = -2

Answer 2

it wouldn't be x=-9?

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

Ok I don't understand that? Sorry could you explain it because I thought your x variable stays the same so why would it equal -2?

Answer 5

x variables don't change in a vertical line-- only the yvalues change.

since you are told that the point (-9,-2) is on the line, the x coord will always be -9 on that line . so x=-9

Answer 6
