Answer:

x=-2

Explanation:

Given points are (-2,2) and (-2,-3).

Now we need to find equation of the line passing through the given points.

So let's begin by finding slope


m=(\left(y_2-y_1\right))/(\left(x_2-x_1\right))=(\left(-3-2\right))/(\left(-2-\left(-2\right)\right))=(\left(-5\right))/(\left(-2+2\right))=-(5)/(0)

which is undefined. That means graph of the line must be vertical as you can see that in given points, x-value is not changing.

Equation of vertical line is given by x=k where k is the fixed value of x-coordinate.

x-coordinate is -2 in given points.

Hence final equation is x=-2.
