A line described by set equal to a constant is a horizontal line with slope of 0. Any line parallel must have the same slope, and therefore also be a horizontal line. If the line is horizontal and passes through (2, 4), then all of the ordered pairs that are in the solution set of the equation must have a coordinate equal to 4.
