Write the equation of the line that satisfies the given condition: contains the point (-6, 4) and is perpendicular to the y axis. Choose the final equation from the following (the equations are given in standard form).
A) x + y = 4
B) y = 4
C) y = -6
D) x $-$ y = 6

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The line is perpendicular to the y-axis, which means it is a vertical line. A vertical line has an equation of the form x = constant. Since the line contains the point (-6, 4), the constant must be -6. Therefore, the equation of the line is x = -6.
