A horizontal line passes parallel to x axis
A vertical line passes parallel to y axis
For a horizontal line equation will be y=a where a is a constant.
For the line to pass through the point (-7,4)
y should be equal to 4.
Your line should be
y=4

Equation of horizontal line is y = -3 Equation of vertical line is x = 5

Hi :)
Horizontal lines are represented with the general notation of:
y = a
where 'a' is a constant. Obviously for your line to pass through the point (-7, 4) you will need 'a' to be equal to 4. So, your equation would be:
y = 4

The gradient of a horizontal would be 0, so make the equation y=4; as the x co-ordinate can have any value.

Since the line is horizontal, then y must be constant (or slope = 0). Therefore the equation of the line is
y = 4

Well, horizontal lines run parallel to the x-axis. They are simply "y=something"
In this case in order for it to run into a point where the y value is 4 the equation must be..
y=4

y = 4 is a horizontal line (gradient or slope = 0) that passes thro` (7, 4)

Yes, y = 4 s the correct equation.

y=4 since it is a horizontal line then there is no x in the equation.
If it were a vertical line then it would be x=.... with no y in the equation.
