Answer:


y=2

Explanation:

We are finding the equation of the line that coincide with line segment AB.

So, we can find the equation by using points A and B.


A\rightarrow(-3,2)\\B\rightarrow)(1,2)

Slope of line (m) =
(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) = (2-2)/(1-(-3)) = 0

Since slope = 0, therefore the line is parallel to x-axis.

The equation of line is given by
y=mx+b

where
m is slope and
b is y-intercept.

So equation of line AB:

where
m=0 and
b=2


y=(0)x+2


y=0+2


y=2
