Answer:

x = 7

Explanation:

A line perpendicular to the x- axis is a vertical line parallel to the y- axis.

The equation of a vertical line is

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line goes through

The line goes through (7, 13) with x- coordinate of 7, thus

x = 7 ← equation of perpendicular line
