1. **State the problem:** Graph the equation $x = -4$ by making a table of values. 2. **Understand the equation:** The equation $x = -4$ means that for every value of $y$, $x$ is always $-4$. This is a vertical line. 3. **Make a table:** Choose several values for $y$ and write $x = -4$ for each. | $x$ | $y$ | |-----|-----| | -4 | -2 | | -4 | 0 | | -4 | 3 | | -4 | 5 | 4. **Plot the points:** All points lie on the vertical line where $x = -4$. 5. **Final answer:** The graph is a vertical line crossing the x-axis at $x = -4$. $$\text{Equation: } x = -4$$
