Question
Write an equation of the line with undefined slope and passing through (5,11).
The correct answer is: x = 5 is the equation of the given line
Hint:-
1. X-intercept is the point on a line at which the given line intersects the x-axis.
2. At this point y-coordinate = 0.
3. A verticle line/ line parallel to the y-axis/ Y-axis has an undefined slope.
Step-by-step solution:-
The given line has an undefined slope.
∴ When plotted on a graph, given line will be represented by a verticle line which is parallel to the y-axis.
We know that any line that is parallel to the Y-axis can be represented as-
x = a ....................................................................................... (Equation i)
where a = x-intercept.
Now, when a line is parallel to the y-axis, any point on the given line has its x-coordinate constant/ same.
Since the given line passes through point (5,11) where the x-coordinate = 5
The x-coordinate at any point on the line will be 5
i.e. for y= 0 also, x = 5
and x-intercept is the point at which y = 0
∴ x-intercept for the given line = a = 5 ................................ (Equation ii)
∴ Equation of the given line = x = 5 ..................................... (From Equation i & Equation ii)
Final Answer:-
∴ x = 5 is the equation of the given line.

George took a nonstop flight from Dallas to Los Angeles, a total flight distance of 1,233 miles. The plane flew at a speed of 460 miles per hour for the first 75 minutes of the flight and at a speed of 439 miles per hour for the remainder of the flight. To the nearest minute, for how many minutes did the plane fly at a speed of 439 miles per hour?
Note:
The relation between speed, distance and time given by the relation above is very important. There could be many such questions formed which ask us to calculate any of the three quantities with certain conditions involved.
