Choose the equation of the line in slope-intercept form. Perpendicular to the y-axis and has the point (-4,5).

A. y = -4
B. x = -4
C. y = 5
D. x = 5

C)   y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line in slope-intercept form:  y = mx + b

(where m is the slope (gradient) and b is the y-intercept)

If the line is perpendicular to the y-axis, the line will be parallel to the x-axis (horiztonal) and so the slope is zero.

Therefore, y = (0)x + b

⇒ y = b

We are told that the line passes through point (-4, 5).  Therefore, the y-intercept is 5.

So the equation of the line is:  y = 5

stops on an even number.

step-by-step explanation:

from this example, we can see that subtracting with integers is the same as adding the opposite. we can solve using a number line or by using the saying "keep, change, change" to us solve. it is important to remember that we can subtract a negative and end up with a larger number than we started with.
