Answer:

Either x = 2 or y = 6, depending on the original line

Step-by-step explanation:

So, if the original line is horizontal, our new line is vertical, and all vertical lines in a graph is x = some number. To pass through the point (2, 6), x has to equal 2, since the point's x-coordinate is 2.

On the other hand, if the original line is vertical, our new line is horizontal, which is y = some number. Our point's y-coordinate is 6, so our line should be that y = 6.
