You can put this solution on YOUR website!
+y+%2B+2+=+7+
Subtract +2+ from each side
+y+=+5+
You have to understand what this says. It says
that no matter what value you choose for +x+,
the y-value will always be +5+, the only line that
satisfies this condition is a horizontal line
( parallel to x-axis ) through the point ( 0, 5 )
