Answer:

The equation is x=3 so that it will pass through that point...

Explanation:

According to the attached picture:

The line we have is y =2.5 and the given line is parallel to x axis.

the perpendicular line to the given line will be parallel to the y-axis and the equation will be equal to the x-coordinate of the given point (3,-1).

point (3,-1)

x=3 and y= -1

Therefore the x coordinate of the point is x =3

The equation is x=3 so that it will pass through that point...
