Answer:

The answer is option D

Explanation:

To find an equation of a line in point slope form when given the slope and a point we use the formula


y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question the point is ( - 2 , -5) and slope 0 is

The equation of the line is


y + 5 = 0(x + 2) \\

We have the final answer as


y + 5 = 0

Hope this helps you
