See the entire solution explanation below:

Explanation:

If the slope is undefined then this is a vertical line where #x# is always the same value, #-10# in this case, for any and all values of #y#. The equation for this line is:

#x = -10#

The standard form of a linear equation is: #color(red)(A)x + color(blue)(B)y = color(green)(C)#

where, if at all possible, #color(red)(A)#, #color(blue)(B)#, and #color(green)(C)#are integers, and A is non-negative, and, A, B, and C have no common factors other than 1

Therefore, for this problem the standard form of the equation is:

#color(red)(1)x + color(blue)(0)y = color(green)(-10)#
