Question 793582: 1)graph the line that passes through (5,8) and it is perpendicular to the y-axis

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Any line perpendicular to the y-axis has the
form +y+=+c+ where +c+ is a constant
This line goes through ( 5,8 ) , but it also goes through
(-10,8 ), ( 2047, 8 ), and (0,8 ).
So, it doesn't matter what x is.
The equation of this line is +y+=+8+
