Hi, there--
.
To find a symbolic expression for f if we first need to find the slope its graph. We know that f is perpendicular to x=-4 (a vertical line) so the slope of f must be 0 (a horizontal line).
.
We know that f passes through the point (-2, 6), so the output of f is 6 when x is -2. Since the slope is 0, the output of the function is always the same, no matter what x is.
.
Thus

.
Hope this helps! Feel free to email if my explanation is unclear.
