Question

Choose the equation of the vertical line passing through the point (-2, 3).

y = 3

x = 3

y = -2

x = -2

Question 10 (Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)

[4_05]Choose the equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (-5, 1).

y = -5

x = 1

y = 1

x = -5,

Answer 1

I think these are the answers for a and b

a) = -2

b) = 1

Answer 2

Choose the equation of the vertical line passing through the point (-2, 3). A vertical line goes up and down through point (-2, 3), so every point on the line will have the same x coordinate. For example, (-2, 0) and (-2, 1) and (-2, -1) all fall on that vertical line. Therefore, the equation for the line is x = -2 Choose the equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (-5, 1). A horizontal line goes left and right through point (-5, 1), so every point on the line will have the same y coordinate. For example, (-1, 1) and (0, 1) and (1, 1) all fall on that horizontal line. Therefore, the equation for the line is y = 1.
