Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, determine the slope of the answer. The x-axis is a horizontal line, thus the new line must be vertical. All vertical lines are represented by the equation x = a number. That number represents the x-value of all the points the vertical line passes through.

So, since the line passes through (-10, -1), take the x-value of that point and put it into that equation. Thus, x = -10.
