Help figuring out the standard form of an equation?

Question

What is the standard form of the equation for the line that passes through the points (-1,-11) and (-1,-4)?

Answer 1

Note that in each point, the x value is -1.  The equation for this line can be written as

x = -1

Standard form would be written as:

0y + 1x = -1

Answer 2

Standard form of a line is Ax + By = C but this one is kind of tricky.

When you do the slope formula, the slope is 7/0 and of course we can't divide by zero.

Then you realize that it's a vertical line because both x-coordinates are -1.

The equation of a vertical line is x = ____________ <==-x-coordinate

So the answer is x = -1

Good luck to you !!
