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.
X = 4 is a vertical line, 4 units to the right of the y-axis.
No. A horizontal line has a slope of 0. A vertical line has an undefined slope. Let's say you have a vertical line with the points (3,-2) and (3,4). The slope is (y1-y2)/(x1-x2) = (-2-4)/(3-3) = -6/0 = undefined. Notice that x is the same for both points. A line in which all points have the same value for x is a vertical line and as such has an undefined slope.
On a typical graph, the vertical line is the y-axis, they horizontal line is the x-axis.
Every point on the line x=4 will have to have an x value of 4. When plotting a graph of x=4, you will find that it turns out to be a vertical line, parallel to the y axis. This is because you can choose whatever y coordinate you want, but as long as the x coordinate is 4, it will be on the line x=4. The x intercept will, therefore, be 4. There is no y intercept as it never crosses the y axis.
WHY THE LINE X=4 IS A VERTICAL LINE.
The equation of a vertical line passing through the point (-4,0) is x = -4. Since all points on a vertical line have the same x-coordinate, the equation is simply x = -4.
x=4
x = 4 is a straight line that is vertical when plotted on the xy graph, where y is the vertical axis and x is the horizontal axis. A vertical line has an infinite slope; the slope is infinity
If you have X=4, that is a vertical line. No matter what value y possesses, x is always four. X=4 when Y=0, X=4 when Y=1, X=4 when Y=-1, and so on.
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.
A vertical line in the xy coordinate plane would represent the line of an equation such as x = 1 or x = -4.
No, it is horizontal.
X = 4 graphs to a vertical line because the x axis is horizontal, and if a line always has a constant x value of 4, it will not move horizontally, because to do that, the x value has to change.
That would be because all the graphed values of x are 4. So you can plug anything in for Y and it will still be on that vertical line.
The equation of the line x = 4 has no term for y in the equation. Therefore any value of y can be used and the x coordinate is still equal 4. So a straight vertical line, crossing the x axis at (4,0) is the only line which satisfies these conditions. You can plot some points: (4,0); (4,100); (4,-5265), etc. and then connect the dots to see that it is a straight vertical line.
The line x = -4 is vertical, so a line that is perpendicular to it is horizontal, so its slope is 0.
