4y = -16 and 3x = 27
Select all that apply.

B. Line 3x = 27 is vertical.
O
C. For both lines, all points on the line have an x- and a y-coordinate.
D. For either line, one of the coordinates of all the points is always the same value.

Answer 1

Answer:

All these statements are true.  See explanations, below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Line 4y = -16 is horizontal.  TRUE.  Note that y = -4 here.

B. Line 3x = 27 is vertical.  TRUE.  Note that x = 9, which is a vertical line.  

C. For both lines, all points on the line have an x- and a y-coordinate.  TRUE.  But for 4y = -16, the y-coordinate is always the same:  -4; for x = 9, the x-coordinate is always the same.

D. For either line, one of the coordinates of all the points is always the same value.  TRUE (See C above)
