Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the equation

The given equation y = -2 represents a horizontal line.

Step 2: Choose two points

Since y is always -2, we can choose any two x values. Let's choose x = 0 and x = 5. This gives us the points (0, -2) and (5, -2).

Step 3: Plot the points and draw the line

Plot the two points (0, -2) and (5, -2) on the coordinate plane. Draw a straight line through these points, extending it in both directions. This line represents all points where the y-coordinate is -2.

Final Answer:

The graph of the equation y = -2 is a horizontal line passing through the points (0, -2) and (5, -2), and all other points where y = -2.
