Answer: y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Both points have a y coordinate of 1, which tells us the line is horizontal. All horizontal lines are of the form y = k, for some constant k.

In this case, k = 1 to ensure that we have the horizontal line go through (8,1) and (4,1).

Note: The slope of any horizontal line is zero.
