The equation for the vertical line that goes through point M(−2, 6) is x = -2.

Answer:

The equation of a straight line is:

y = mx + b;

y, x are variables, m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept.

The slope of a vertical is undefined. Since the line passes through the point M(−2, 6), hence the equation of the vertical line is:

x = -2
