Write equation for the line that is perpendicular to the y axis and passing through (5,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

A line perpendicular to the y-axis, which is vertical, is a line that is horizontal. Perfectly horizontal lines always have a slope of 0. Thus, the equation of the line perpendicular to the one given and passing through the given point (5, 1) is

y - 1 = 0(x - 5) and

y - 1 = 0x - 0 and

y - 1 = 0 so

y = 1 is the equation you're looking for.

ok then what happened.
