we know that

A line parallel to the x -axis is a horizontal line.

The slope of the horizontal line is equal to zero and the equation of a horizontal line is equal to the y-coordinate of the points that go through the line

In this problem the line passes through the point
(2,4)

the y-coordinate of the point is
4

so

the equation of the line is


y=4

the answer is the option C


y=4
