A line L is parallel to the $x$ -axis. It passes through the intersection of the lines $x = 2$ and $y = - 7$ .
Write the equation of line L.

Class 9Lines Parallel to the AxesLinear Equations

A $y = - 7$
B $x = 2$
C $y = 2$
D $x = - 7$

Step-by-Step Solution

The lines

x = 2

and

y = - 7

meet at (2, -7). A line through this point parallel to the

x

-axis keeps

y

constant:

y = - 7

.

Answer: A)

y = - 7
