Question

write the equation of a line segment through the point(8,7) and parallel to y-axis​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope=1/0

Y-y1=m(x-x1)

Y-7=1/0(x-8)

X=8

Answer 2

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line which is parallel to the y-axis is given by x=C ......... (1)

Where C is any constant value.

Now, if the straight line passes through the point with coordinates (8,7).

Then the equation (1) must be satisfied by the coordinates (8,7).

Hence, putting x=8 in the equation (1), we get, C=8.

Therefore, the equation of the required straight line is x=8. (Answer)
