Answer:
The answer for this question is B)
Answer:
Part 1) Vertical line : 
Part 2) Horizontal line : 
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

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

This is to do with ratios, the idea behind it is that you see that the side of length 24 is an enlarged version of the side labelled 16. Using this you can see that the ratio of enlargement is 1.5, therefore x = 26/1.5 = 53/2
