Question

Determine the equation of the line that is parallel to the y-axis and passes through (-0.399...,2.78).

Answer 1

I'm not sure where to begin with this. Will I be using the y=mx+b formula?

Answer 2

If so, how do I find the slope?

Answer 3

Oh. How do I get x2 and y2?

Answer 4

Would it be the same points repeating?

Answer 5

Or the opposite?

Answer 6

wait.i'm telling you

Answer 7

A line parallel to the y-axis is a vertical line. Vertical lines have the characteristic that the x-coordinates of all of the points that comprise the line are equal.

Answer 8

in case of a line parallel to y axis the equation of the line becomes-x=-0.399
