Question

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y = 5 y=5y, equals, 5 and that passes through the point ( − 7 , − 5 ) (−7,−5)left parenthesis, minus, 7, comma, minus, 5, right parenthesis

Answer 1

-7 is the answer good luck

Answer 2

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the given line is y = 5, which is a horizontal line, the line perpendicular to it will be a vertical line passing through the point (-7, -5). A vertical line is of the form x = k, where k is a constant.

To find the value of k, we know that the line passes through the point (-7, -5), so we substitute these values into the equation of the line:

x = k

-7 = k

Therefore, the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = 5 and passes through the point (-7, -5) is x = -7.
