How do you write equations for ertical and horizontal lines?

A vertical line has the equation [ x = a number ]. A horizontal line has the equation [ y = a number ].


This ellipse is centered at the origin and has a horizontal axis of length 26 and a vertical axis of length 12 What is its equation?

This ellipse is centered at the origin and has a horizontal axis of length 26 and a vertical axis of length 12 What is its equation?


What is the equation of horizontal and vertical?

The equation of a horizontal line is y = constant (e.g you might have y=2 if your horizontal line is 2 up the y axis).For a vertical line the equation will be x=constant so if you wanted the equstion of the vertical line that crosses the x axis at 5 it would be x=5.If you want the equations of the horizontal and vertical axis then they are:horizontal axis: y=0vertical axis: x=0


What is the slope for the equation y equals -3?

The slope (or gradient) of a vertical or horizontal line is zero.


The equation y - 4 equals 0 represents a vertical line?

No. It represents a horizontal line.


What equation always equals 5?

The equation of a vertical line x = 5 or the equation of a horizontal line y = 5.


How do you find horizontal and vertical asymptotes?

finding vertical asymptotes is easy. lets use the equation y = (2x-2)/((x^2)-2x-3) since its a rational equation, all we have to do to find the vertical asymptotes is find the values at which the denominator would be equal to 0. since this makes it an undefined equation, that is where the asymptotes are. for this equation, -1 and 3 are the answers for the vertical ayspmtotes. the horizontal asymptotes are a lot more tricky. to solve them, simplify the equation if it is in factored form, then divide all terms both in the numerator and denominator with the term with the highest degree. so the horizontal asymptote of this equation is 0.


What part of the equation makes the graph narrow or wide?

its not the equation that matters it is how you map it out on the graph, the vertical and horizontal axis are interchangeable. For example if x is the vertical axis and y is the horizontal axis the graph would look different than if y was the vertical axis and x was the horizontal axis. The narrow and wide of a graph depend on the horizontal axis ( how quickly the numbers increase and or how far apart the markers are spaced) ...If the intervals are counted by 5 the graph would be wider than if the intervals were counted by 500.


Why can you use the point-slope formula when writing an equation of a horizontal line but not with a vertical line?

A vertical line HAS NO slope! The slope is undefined in this case.


Do horizontal lines have x-values that are all the same?

A vertical line has the same x-value. A horizontal line has the same y-value. The equation, y=3 would graph as a horizontal line crossing the y-axis at 3.


Is y-4 a horizontal or vertical line?

y - 4 is not an equation so does not form a line. y = 4 is a horizontal line as every co-ordinate has the y value of 4.


How do you graph if there is no slope?

A line with no slope is a vertical line. The slope is undefined, and cannot be represented by a real number. A horizontal line has a slope, but the slope is zero. Consider the "y = mx + b" form of the straight line equation. For a horizontal line the slope is zero, so y = 0x +b => y = b, which is the equation of a horizontal line. For a vertical line, there is no slope, so you can't substitute for m; the equation can't be written in the form y = mx +b. The equation of a vertical line has the form x = a.
