45. Write the equation of a vertical line that passes through the point (10, -13).?

Question

how do i do this?

Answer 1

(x = 10) Draw a vertical line through the point. Vertical lines always have the equation (x = ?) where ? represents the x-coordinate of the given point.

Answer 2

Vertical lines follow the pattern X=C
where C is a constant.

Horizontal ones follow the pattern Y=C
where C is a constant.

In your problem, the x coordinate is 10, so X=10 is a vertical line that passes through ALL y coordinates, but only ever touches the x coordinate 10.

Answer 3

Equation of horizontal line is y = -3 Equation of vertical line is x = 5

Answer 4

You know the slope of a vertical line, so it is useless. If it is vertical, it must pass through the X-axis. Put the information you have on a graph and it should be obvious.

Answer 5

Points are expressed (x,y)
So if your line is vertical, what means is the value from x
The equation will be x=10
It will pass trough y = -13 and any other value from y.

Answer 6

vertical line means its parallel so its an x = something

x = 10

Answer 7

x = 10
plot the point and draw the vertical line tha goes through it.

Answer 8

x = 10 is the required line.
At every point on this line, x = 10
(10 , -13) is one such point.
