Question 461068: Which of the following do you find easier to graph? Why?
a. 3x + 4y = 8
b. y = (-3/4)x + 2
Also why is the graph of x = 7 is a vertical line?

Probably b) because it is already in slope intercept form.

x = 7 is vertical because it contains all points (7,y) for some y, and all of these points lie on a vertical line.
