a) x = 5
b) x = 0
c) y = 0
d) y = 5
Thank you!



Answer :

The equation of the line is x = 5

How to find the equation of a line?

The equation of a line can be represented in slope intercept form as follows:

y = mx + b

where

  • m = slope
  • b = y-intercept

Therefore, let's find the slope and y-intercept

(5, 0)(5, - 2)

m = -2 - 0 / 5 - 5

m = -2 / 0

m = infinity

Hence,  It is a vertical line, since the x is the same for both of them, and it is equal to  both times.

Therefore, the equation of the line is x = 5
