2) write the equation in slope intercept form (solved for y), when possible. Through (-1,-6) perpendicular to the y-axis
Plot the point and draw the line perpendicular to the y-axis.
It passes thru all the points where y = -6.
Equation: y = -6
==============================
3) Find an equation of the line with the given slope that passes through a given point. write the equation Ax+By=C .... m= -1, (-5,-9)
Use the form y = mx+b
-9 = -1*-5 + b
b = -14
----
Equation: y = -x-14
----
Change the form:
x + y = -14
===========================

I already answered this one.
A line parallel to the 
-axis is a vertical line. Vertical lines have a couple of interesting characteristics. In the first place, ALL of the 
-coordinates of the set of ordered pairs that comprise the line have to be identical. Since all of the -coordinates are equal, no matter which two points you choose for the purposes of computing the slope, the slope fraction will have a zero denominator. Hence, the slope of any vertical line is undefined.
You can't write the equation of a vertical line in slope-intercept form because the slope quantity is undefined. However, since the -coordinates of all the points on the line are identical, the equation of a vertical line passing through the point )
is uniquely defined by the equation
