Question

Graph the equations

(a)$x=-2$

(b)$y=3$

Short answer

The required graphs are

And

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Given Information

The given equations are$x=-2$and$y=3$

Part(a) Step 1. Explanation and Graph

The equation has only one variable $x$which is always equal to $-2$. We will create a table where $x=-2$and can put any value in $y$

x	y
$-2$	1
$-2$	4

The required graph is a vertical line passing through the $x$-axis at $-2$

Part(b) Step 1. Explanation and Graph

The equation has only one variable $y$which is always equal to 3. Thus, we will create a table where $y=3$and can put any value in $y$.

x	y
1	3
3	3

The required graph is a horizontal line passing through the $y$-axis at 3.
