Post a 50-word response to the following: Explain why the line x = 4 is a vertical line.

Someone here will be happy to review your thoughts.

i can not come up with 50 words.

hows this ?

a vertical line is up and down. since they state what x is just pick a number y should be. for example have y be 2. so now the pair is (4,2). remember the first number is the x axis and the second number is the y axis. now plot (4,2)

I don't see why 50 words are needed.

The variable x has to be 4 and y can be anything. The y axis is up, so the plotted line containing all possible points is vertical.

What you wrote is ok, but you should start sentences with capitial letters

A vertical line is up and down. Since they state what x is just pick a number y should be. For example have y be 2. So now the pair is (4,2). Remember the first number is the x axis and the second number is the y axis. Now plot (4,2). Now pick another number for y to be. Once you have the number make it a pair. Like (4,-5) plot it and connect it to your previous dot.

Sure, but Drwls said it in fewer words.

The line x = 4 is vertical because it only has one variable, which is x. This means that the value of y doesn't matter, as it can be any value. Therefore, the line will be a straight vertical line passing through the point where x = 4 on the x-axis.
