Hint: In the given question, it is asked to graph the line \[y = 4\]. Now, this line is going to be parallel to the x-axis because its x-coordinate is going to be zero. The given value of the y-coordinate gives us the offset from the origin horizontally, i.e., how far is the line from the origin when you count in the direction of the ordinate.

Complete step-by-step answer:
The given equation of the line is \[y = 4\]. This line is going to be parallel to the x-axis, which means that it is never going to touch the x-axis, i.e., the abscissa of this line is always going to be zero.
Now, we graph the line by taking three points right (because the value of \[y\] is positive) of the origin in the direction of the y-axis.

Additional Information:
 The graph of a linear equation \[Ax + By = C\] is a line.
1. Every point on the line is a solution of the equation.
2. Every solution of this equation is a point on this line.

Note:In this question, we only need to be careful about one thing: when is the line going to be parallel to the x-axis and when it will be to y-axis. After that we just count the number of points to be fit in that orientation, then plot it on the graph and we are going to get the answer.
