Answer:Option A is correct.

y-2=0

Explanation:

Option A is correct.

General form of the equation of the line: y-2 = 0

Explanation:

The general form of the equation is given by:

y = mx +b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y-intercepts of the line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y-axis(i.e x= 0)

From the given figure;

we can see that the line crosses the y-axis at y =2 and also here the slope is , m= 0

therefore, by definition of y-intercepts

y-intercept (b) = 2

Therefore, the equation of line as shoen in figure is:

y = (0)x + 2

or

y = 2

y-2 = 0

Therefore, the general form of the equation line as shown in the figure is:

y-2 =0
