Question
![**Writing Equations of Vertical and Horizontal Lines**
*Objective:* Write equations for the vertical and horizontal lines passing through the point \((-8,0)\).
---
**Instructions:**
1. Identify the equations of the vertical and horizontal lines that pass through a specific point given as \((-8,0)\).
2. Use the input fields provided to enter the equations.
---
**Input Section:**
* Vertical Line Equation:
* Horizontal Line Equation:
---
**Buttons Available:**
* **X:** This button may represent the tool to input the variable \(x\).
* **⟳:** This button may represent a reset or refresh option.
* **?**: This button may represent a help or hint option.
---
**Note:** Ensure the correct format for the equations is used for vertical and horizontal lines.
**Vertical Line Equation:** This line is characterized by all points having the same x-coordinate. For point \((-8,0)\), the equation is \(x = -8\).
**Horizontal Line Equation:** This line is characterized by all points having the same y-coordinate. For point \((-8,0)\), the equation is \(y = 0\).
---
Once you have completed entering the equations, press the "Continue" button to proceed.
---
**Example:**
If the point given was \((3, 5)\):
* Vertical Line Equation: \(x = 3\)
* Horizontal Line Equation: \(y = 5\)
