Equation of a vertical line

The equation of a vertical line is:

x=  The same number

Example

x=7

No matter what value y is, x is 7.

y=2              x=7

y=1              x=7

y=0              x=7

y=-1        x=7

y=-2        x=7

The graph would be plotted as follows.

Plot a vertical line on the graph which goes through the x axis

And would look like this.

Now find the x axis value and y axis value x = 7

This is a vertical line.
