Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = 4

Explanation:

Since the first line is horizontal and parallel lines have the same slope, we know the new line must also be horizontal.

All horizontal lines are written using the equation y = (a number). We are given that number in the y-intercept, which in this case is 4.

y = 4
