Question 1066456: Write an equation of a line through the point (-5,-2) that is perpendicular to the x-axis.State the slope of the line. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! slopes of line perpendicular to the x-axis are undefined. Their equation is x= whatever the x-value of the coordinate is.
here, the x value is -5
the equation of the line is x= -5
(-5,-2) is one of those points.
