Which of the equations below represents a line parallel to the y-axis? A. x = 4 B. x = -y C. x = y D. x = 4y

darkknight:

What do you think?

darkknight:

the y-axis is x = 0, as a hint

darkknight:

which of the option choices are parallel to x=0?

darkknight:

As a hint, the last 3 option choices are all y equals some slope times x, do you think those are parallel to x=0?

supie:

@leilanithomas2024 he is trying to guide u to the answer instead of giving a direct answer and he is asking u questions to make sure u understand the point is so u can understand the material not jus get the answer so answer his questions that he is asking ok

supie:

@leilanithomas2024 You wanna go ahead and read my paragraph

leilanithomas2024:

sorry i got busy. but i was gonna go with x=y?

darkknight:

how is that parallel to x=0, try graphing both on desmos and see if they are parallel.

darkknight:

To get another parallel function to x =0, the function x has to equal a number, that can't have y

leilanithomas2024:

oh ok that makes sense

darkknight:

yeah, so now what do you think it is?

leilanithomas2024:

x=4 bc you said it can't have y to get another parallel function

darkknight:

yeah, u can medal me if you want to no pressure. Good luck with homework

leilanithomas2024:

thank you i really appreciate it
