You can put this solution on YOUR website! Write equations for the vertical and horizontal lines passing through the point (9,1) in (x,y) coordinates.

Horizontal line =
-----------------------
It will be less confusing if you draw the picture.
Plot the point (9,1) on a coordinate system.
Draw a vertical line thru the point.
Do you see that the line passes thru ALL the points where x=9 ?
The equation of that vertical line is x=9
----------------------------------------------
Draw a horizontal line thru the point.
Do you see that the line passes thru ALL the points where y = 1 ?
The equation of that horizontal line is y = 1
