Question

Write equations for the vertical and horizontal lines passing through the point (-8,6)
vertical line=?
positive line=?

Answer 1

one equation will be x=something and other will be y=something

Answer 2

for example, when x= 0, then that line has value of x=0 for every y possible

Answer 3

ok so what do i do

Answer 4

you have two different lines and one point
for (-8,6), the first coordinate is the x-coordinate and the second coordinate is the y-coordinate

Answer 5

ok...

Answer 6

one line is vertical the other is horizontal

for vertical lines, x=something
for horizontal lines, y=something

Answer 7

ok but your telling me the obvious part.

Answer 8

the answer is obvious; I've told you everything possible without giving the answer

Answer 9

That's all there is....the obvious part.

ok so the vertical is -8 and the horizontal is 6. but thats not an equation

Answer 11

for vertical lines, x=something
