Answer:

y = - 2

Explanation:

The equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis is

y = c

Where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through

The line passes through (2, - 2) and (0, - 2) both with y- coordinate of - 2, thus

Equation of line is y = - 2

\text{Hey there!}


\text{The equation is: }\frac{\text{y}_2 -\text{y}_1}{\text{x}_2-\text{x}_1}


\text{y}_2 = -2\\\text{y}_1=-2\\\text{x}_2=0\\\text{x}_1=2


(-2 - (-2))/(0-2)


\bf{-2 - (-2)= -2 + 2 \rightarrow0}


(0)/(0-2)


\bf{0 - 2 = -2}


\frac{0\leftarrow\text{y-intercept}}{-2\leftarrow\text{x-intercept}}


  • \boxed{\text{Answer \#1: y = 0}}
    \checkmark

  • \boxed{\text{Answer \# 2: x = -2}}
    \checkmark

  • \boxed{\text{Overall answer: -2}}


\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}
