What is the equation of the vertical line passing through (-5,-2)
Chat with our AI personalities
If the slope is undefined, it is a vertical line. Therefore the equation is x=2.
x = 1 (the line intersects the x-axis at 1, and is parallel to the y-axis)We cannot write the equation on the Slope-intercept form, since the slope of the line is undefined. 1 is the x-coordinate of any point on the given line.

x = 2
Vertical lines only intersect the x-axis. This means that the equation of a vertical line is x=n. The variable n is the coordinate where on the x-axis the line goes.
