Questions: Graph the line x=-5.

Transcript text: Graph the line $x=-5$.

Solution

Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the type of line

The equation $x = -5$ represents a vertical line. This means that for every value of $y$, the value of $x$ is always -5.

Step 2: Locate points on the line

Since $x$ is always -5, we can choose any two points with an x-coordinate of -5. For example, $(-5, 0)$ and $(-5, 2)$.

Step 3: Plot the points

Plot the points $(-5, 0)$ and $(-5, 2)$ on the graph.

Step 4: Draw the line

Draw a straight vertical line passing through the plotted points. This line represents all points where $x = -5$.

Final Answer

The graph of the line $x = -5$ is a vertical line passing through $(-5, 0)$, $(-5, 2)$ and all other points with an x-coordinate of -5. It is parallel to the y-axis and is located 5 units to the left of it. $\boxed{x = -5}$
