If the line is horizontal, then the y value is constant (and the value of x doesn't matter). The equation is

ANSWER: y=2

or, to see that the value of x doesn't matter, you could write the equation as

y = 0x+2

Seeing the equation in that form quickly shows you two things:
(1) The value of x doesn't matter (0 times x is always 0)
(2) The slope of the line is 0, which means it is horizontal
