Question 1002652: Write an equation of a line through the point (-5, -2) that is perpendicular to the x-axis. Graph the line on the grid below or create your own graph. State the slope of the line.
Please show all work. Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Any line that is perpendicular to thre x-axis
has infinite slope. Every point that the given
line passes through will look like:
( -5, y ) ( a different each time )
------------------------------
So, they way to define this line is:
The slope is infinite
