Question

How do you graph `x=5` using slope intercept form?

Answer 1

See a solution process below:

Explanation:

The equation `x = 5` is the equation of a vertical line where for each and every value of `y`, `x` is equal to `5`

By definition the slope of a vertical line is undefined.

Because the value of `x` will never be `0` there is no `y`-intercept.

However, for `y = 0`, `x` will equal `5` so the `x`-intercept is at `(5, 0)`

So we can graph this as a vertical line crossing the `x`-axis at `5`

graph{y-1000x+5000= 0}
