The equation of the line through point (-5, 0) and parallel to the y-axis is

x = -5
y = -5
x + y = -5

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Any line parallel to y - axis has undefined slope and the line is in the form x =k.

Here, k is the x- coordinate of  the point through which the line is passing.

Now, we have been given that the line is passing through the point (-5, 0).

Therefore, the value of k is -5.

Hence, the equation of the line through point (-5, 0) and parallel to the y-axis is x = -5.

First option is correct.

answer: bearing in mind that a rectangle has a perimeter of length + length + width + width.

step-by-step explanation:

p = perimeter

l = length

x=width

p = 2l + 2x

p = 2(l+x)     < ==== perimeter of the base of the box.
