Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the slope using

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= ( -8 - 5)/( -7 - -7)

= (-8-5)/(-7+7)

= -13/0

This means the slope is undefined and the line is vertical

Vertical lines are in the form

x= constant and the constant is the x value of the points

x = -7

What is 8,792 as a fraction?

Wittaler [7]

We have a number $8.792$ .

To write it as a fraction first count the number of decimals and call it $n$ (which, in our case, has a value of 3). Multiply the number with $10^n$ to get $8792$ . Then divide this number by $10^n$ to get $\frac{8792}{10^n}$ from here you can either simplify (if the assignment says so, then the simplified fraction is $\frac{1099}{125}$ ) or not.
