The Straight Line Pass Year Questions

This document contains 8 multi-part questions about finding equations of and intercepts for straight lines parallel to axes or other lines on Cartesian coordinate planes. Each question provides a diagram and asks to determine equations and/or intercepts based on given information like one line's equation or that two lines are parallel. The questions require applying properties of parallel lines and using their relationships to write equations and find intercepts.
