Question

Which statement is true about the graphs of the two lines y = –6 and x = ?

Answer 1

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

A. The lines are perpendicular to each other because the graph of y = –6 is a horizontal line with a slope that is undefined, and the graph of x = is a vertical line with a slope of 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given lines are $y=-6$ and $x=\frac{1}{6}$.

Notice that they are a horizontal and a vertical line, respectively.

If one of them is vertical and the other one is horizontal that means they are perpendicular lines. The vertical line passes through 1/6 and the horizontal line passes through -6.

Therefore, they are vertical lines intercepted at (1/6 , -6).

Additionally, vertical lines always have undefined slope, and horizontal lines always have a null slope.
