Question

Find the equation of a line that is parallel to the line x=4 and contains the point (-2,9)

Answer 1

Your answer is x = -2

Answer 2

Answer:   x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the original equation is x=4 which means that it is a straight line. For 2 lines to be parallel, they have to have the same slope. In this case, The slope is undefined because it is a straight line. To make a line that has the  points x= -2 and y=9, the line would just be x=-2.

x=-2 also has an undefined slope, so it is parallel. And if the line is straight the point -2,9 will eventually end up on the line.
