Question

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to x=8 and that passes through the point (-3,-2)​

Answer 1

• y = - 2

----------------

The line that is perpendicular to x = 8 has a form of:

• y = a

Since it has a point (-3, - 2), the value of a is the y-coordinate of this point. Therefore the line is:

• y = - 2
