x=2

Explanation:

x=4" is a vertical line parallel to the y-axis and passing"
"through all points in the plane with an x-coordinate of 4"

x=2" is parallel to "x=4" so is a vertical line"
"passing through all points with x-coordinate of 2"

"plot 2 or 3 points with an x-coordinate of 2 and "
"draw a straight line through them"

"for example "(2,-5),(2,0),(2,3)
graph{(y-1000x+4000)(y-1000x+2000)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
