The answer is D. y=4. I've attached an image of what the graph looks like.
A you can see, all the values of y are 4 so the graph goes through (1,4) and is also parallel to the x axis, which has the equation y=0

Answer:

Option: D is the correct answer.

D. y=4

Explanation:

We know that any equation of a line that is parallel to x-axis is given by:

y=a

and it passes through (0,a).

Hence, in the given question:

The equation of a line that passes through the point (1,4) and is parallel to the x-axis is:

D. y=4

From the graph of y=4 we could observe that is satisfies the given condition.
