a vertical line at x=3
The x-intercept of a line is the point at which the line crosses the x-axis.

On the Cartesian plane the x line is the horizontal axis and the y line is the vertical axis.
The line x = 4 is a verticle line because, in a standard x-y graph, where x increases to the right and y increases upwards, the graph x = 4 is all points y, where x is 4. That is a verticle line, with infinite slope.
Imagine the set up: line 1 X line 2 X X line 3 X X X line 4 X X X X line 5 (empty) Move the pin from line 1 to the centre of line 5. line 1 (empty) line 2 X X line 3 X X X line 4 X X X X line 5 X Now move the 2 outer pins on line 4 to the outer position on line 2 line 1 (empty) line 2 X X X X line 3 X X X line 4 X X line 5 X And there you go. Except the spacings I used weren't saved. I hope you get the idea though!
A line with the equation:x = a constant valueis a vertical line. Examples of such a line are x = 3, x = 5, x = 10, x = -4.The slope of a vertical line is infinite.
Yes, the slope of a line is the coefficient of the x-term in the line.

Yes. The horizontal line is the x-axis and the vertical line is the 7-axis.
A line will have no x-intercept if it is parallel to the x-axis, otherwise it will meet up with it eventually. That would be the graph of a Y=something line.
