OpenStudy (anonymous):

hold on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

horizontal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is actually a vertical line|dw:1345672581782:dw| a horizontal line would look like this |dw:1345672595342:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all vertical lines come in the form of x = ____ all horizontal lines come in the form of y=____ so you need a vertical line that runs through point(-5,2) so x= ??? or in other words what is the x-coordinate of (-5,2)?
