The equation for a line passing through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula:
y - y1 = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) * (x - x1)
Using the points (7, -3) and (7, 0), we have:
y - (-3) = (0 - (-3)) / (7 - 7) * (x - 7)
Simplifying this equation:
y + 3 = 3 / 0 * (x - 7)
Since 3 / 0 is undefined, this means that the slope of the line is undefined. This indicates that the line is a vertical line passing through the point (7, -3). Thus, the equation of the line is:
x = 7
Write an equation for the line (7, -3) and (7, 0)
