The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Plot the Points A and B 1. **Identify the coordinates of point A**: A(7, 6) - The x-coordinate is 7, which means we move 7 units to the right from the origin (0,0). - The y-coordinate is 6, which means we move 6 units up from the x-axis. - Therefore, point A is located at (7, 6) on the graph paper. 2. **Identify the coordinates of point B**: B(7, -6) - The x-coordinate is again 7, so we move 7 units to the right from the origin. - The y-coordinate is -6, which means we move 6 units down from the x-axis. - Therefore, point B is located at (7, -6) on the graph paper. ### Step 2: Join the Points A and B - Draw a straight line connecting point A (7, 6) and point B (7, -6). This line will be vertical since both points have the same x-coordinate (7). ### Step 3: Determine the Axis to which Line AB is Parallel - Since both points A and B have the same x-coordinate, the line AB is vertical. - A vertical line is parallel to the y-axis. ### Final Answer - The line AB is parallel to the y-axis. ---
