Question

5. Write the equation for the vertical line that contains point E(–7, 7). (1 point)
y = 7
x = –7
y = –7
x = 7

Answer 1

Please, at least try to do it yourself.

Answer 2

It's very simple once you try.

Answer 3

Very simple to you. Not me.

Answer 4

Okay, sorry. But can you ask your teacher to explain it better at least? I'm sure they would be glad to help if you asked.

Answer 5

I have. They are busy with the other students.

Answer 6

So "c"?

Answer 7

Hm. I see you don't have a good teacher? Okay. I'll use another example for you and see if you get it.

Answer 8

Write the equation for the vertical line that contains point E(10, –3).?

Any straight line can be written with the equation y=mx+b, where m is the slope of the line (rise/run) and b is where the line intersects the y axis.

In this particular case, your line crosses the x-axis at 10 and crosses the y-axis at -3. So using the process above, we find the equation to be y=(3/10)x-3

Answer 9

I'll just guess... I do not understand this...

Answer 10

Hm. That will not help you. If you look at the problem, just subsitute your own numbers into the problem and solve it from there.

Answer 11

Write the equation for the vertical line that contains point E(-7,7).?

Any straight line can be written with the equation y=mx+b, where m is the slope of the line (rise/run) and b is where the line intersects the y axis.

In this particular case, your line crosses the x-axis at -7 and crosses the y-axis at 7. So using the process above, we find the equation to be y=(-7/7)x-7

Answer 12

x=-7

Answer 13

Do you understand better now?

Answer 14

Yes, Thank you.

Answer 15

No problem. Sorry for being a bit rude before.

Answer 16

It's cool.

Answer 17

Okay, great!
