The equation of a line parallel to the y-axis is is the equation of a vertical line since the vertical line lies along the y-axis. The equation that represents a line which is parallel to the y-axis is x = -8

<h3>Equation of a line</h3>

A line is defined as the shortest distance between two points. The formula for finding the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is given as;

y = mx + b

The point sloe form of the equation is given as y-y1 = m(x-x1)

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the intercept
  • (x1, y1) is any point on the line

The equation of a line parallel to the y-axis is is the equation of a vertical line since the vertical line lies along the y-axis.

The equation of a vertical line is expressed in the form x = a where a is the x-intercept.

Therefore the equation that represents a line which is parallel to the y-axis is x = -8

If h(x) = x – 7 and g(x) = x2, which expression is equivalent to(g*h)(5)? a (5 – 7)2, b (5)2 – 7, c (5)2(5 – 7), d (5 – 7)x2
asambeis [7]
H(x) = x - 7
g(x) = x^2
(g * h)(x) = x^2 (x - 7)
(g * h)(5) = 5^2 (5 - 7)

What is the equation of the line that passes through (4, -1) and (-2, 3)?
Rina8888 [55]
Y=mx+b

m=slope, b=y-intercept 

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1), b=value of y when x=0

m=(3--1)/(-2-4)

m=4/-6

m=-2/3, now we have:

y=-2x/3+b, we can solve for b using any point, I'll use (4,-1)

-1=-2(4)/3+b

-1=-8/3+b

-3/3+8/3=b

5/3=b so

y=-2x/3+5/3
