X+7=0
Thank you.
STD EQN.IS
Y=MX+C..WHERE M=SLOPE...C=Y INTERCEPT
HERE WE HAVE
Y*0=0=X+7.......HENCE IT MEANS SLOPE IS 1/0..OR INFINITY..THAT IS THE LINE IS PERPENDICULAR TO X AXIS OR PARALLEL TO Y AXIS...SO IT DOES NOT MEET Y AXIS ..SO THERE IS INFINITE OR UNDEFINED Y INTERCEPT
PLOT AND SEE GRAPH FOR CLARITY
X.......-7......-7............-7...ETC..
Y........0........1............2....ETC
