Write the equation of the line that satisfies the given condition: contains the point (-1, -10) and is parallel to the y axis.
A) x + y = -10
B) x $-$ y = 1
C) y = -1
D) x = -1

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A line that is parallel to the y-axis will have a constant x-value, since it will not change as the y-value varies. Therefore, the equation of the line will be of the form x = constant. Since the line passes through the point (-1, -10), the constant value will be -1. So the equation of the line is x = -1.
