Question

What’s the horizontal line and vertical line?-use X=blank and Y=blank.

Answer 1

Answer:

Part 1) Vertical line : $x=1$

Part 2) Horizontal line :  $y=-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Write the equation for the vertical line passing through the point (1,-4)

we know that

The equation of a vertical line (parallel to the y-axis) is equal to the x-coordinate of the point that passes through it

so

The x-coordinate is 1

therefore

The equation of the line is

$x=1$

Part 2) Write the equation for the horizontal line passing through the point (1,-4)

we know that

The equation of a horizontal line (parallel to the x-axis) is equal to the y-coordinate of the point that passes through it

so

The y-coordinate is -4

therefore

The equation of the line is

$y=-4$
