Answer:

y=0x+1 or y=1

Explanation:

slope intercept form: y = mx+b

because it is parallel to the equation y=2 (slope of y=2 is 0), the slope of this line must also be 0.

because it passes through the point (4, 1), we know that the equation will be a flat, horizontal line at the y-coordinate of 1.
