How do I write the equation of the line parallel to x=2 that goes through point (0,7).?

Answer 1

Parallel to x=2 would need to be another vertical line in the form x=constant. Since the point is given to you, use the x coordinate from that equation to come up with the line.

x=0

You may want to try drawing a picture. It can help a lot with these special cases (horizontal and vertical lines)

Answer 2

Hi!

When you have a vertical line like x=2 that means the one parallel to it must also be a vertical line. So all you have to do is identify the x value of given point.

For example: parallel to x=2 and goes through the point (-3,5)

Therefore the equation would be x=-3 bc that was x value in the given point and is an equation of a vertical line that goes through (-3,5) as well as the x axis.

So yours is x=2 and goes through the point (0, 7) Since 0 is the x value, the equation would be the vertical line x=0.

I hope this helps. Have a great day!
