Question

graph the following equation in a rectangular coordinate system.

(x = 8)

use the graphing tool to graph the line.

Explanation:

Identify the equation type

$$ x = 8 $$

Determine the geometric representation

$$ \text{A vertical line passing through } (8, y) \text{ for any real number } y. $$

Select two points to define the line

$$ (8, 0) \quad \text{and} \quad (8, 5) $$

Answer:

To graph the equation \(x = 8\), plot a vertical line that passes through all points where the \(x\)-coordinate is \(8\). You can graph this line by plotting any two points with an \(x\)-coordinate of \(8\), such as \((8, 0)\) and \((8, 5)\), and drawing a straight vertical line through them.
