Answer:

x = 3

Explanation:

You want the equation of the line through points (3, -3) and (3, -6).

Vertical line

The two points have the same x-value, indicating the line through them is a vertical line. That will have an equation of the form x = c.

The x-value of the given points is 3, so the equation is ...

x = 3

__

Additional comment

We note that the answer box is pre-filled with "y =". There is no "y =" equation that will go through these points. The slope is undefined, so the slope-intercept form of the equation cannot be used.
