The equation in standard form for the line that has undefined slope and passes through (-2,3) is 1x + 0y = -2

Solution:

Given that line that has undefined slope and passes through (-2, 3)

To find: equation of line in standard form

If the slope of the line is undefined then by definition this is a vertical line. Vertical lines have the equation x = a where a is the same value for x for each and every value of y

The point in this problem has a value for x of -2 .Therefore the equation for this line is:

x = -2

The standard form for linear equations in two variables is Ax + By = C

where A, B, and C are integers and x and y are variables

Therefore, the Standard Form of the linear equation for this problem is:

1x + 0y = -2
