See a solution process below:

#x = 2# means for each and every value of #y# then #x = 2#

We can easily plot 2 points:

When #y = 0# then #x = 2# or #(2, 0)#

When #y = 2# then #x = 2# or #(2, 2)#

graph{((x-2)^2+y^2-0.025)((x-2)^2+(y-2)^2-0.025)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

We can now draw a line through the two points:

graph{(y-(1000/1)x + 2000)((x-2)^2+y^2-0.025)((x-2)^2+(y-2)^2-0.025)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

You can see #x = 2# is a vertical line at #2# on the horizontal axis
