How would you find an equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (-4,-8)?
----------------------
When a line is horizontal, that means that every point on that line is going to have the same y-coordinate.
Since the y-coordinate is -8, then every single point will look like (x,-8)
So we plot the line y= -8

And we see that (-4,-8) is on the line.
