Answer:
y= -5
Explanation:
x=0 is a vertical graph hence the perpendicular graph would be a horizontal line, a y= ____ graph.
Since it passes through the point (-2, -5),
the equation of the line is y= -5.
This would be in slope- intercept form since the gradient of horizontal lines is zero.
y= mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.
Given that gradient =0, m=0
y= 0x +c
when x= -2, y= -5,
-5= 0(-2) +c
-5= c
c= -5
Thus the equation is y= -5.
