Given equation is #y+2=7#. It seems that we can simplify it further by taking the 2 to the right hand side. So we get #y=7-2=5\impliesy=5#

Notice there's no #x# parameter in the given equation, so it doesn't matter what value of #x# you take, may it be #4# or #6#, the answer is the same, it's #y=5#

So do just that, take a point #(0,5)#, then take any graph{y+0x=5 [-9.71, 10.29, -1.72, 8.28]} other point where the #y# ordinate is #5#, that's the graph of the function.

You'll also notice that the given line will be parallel to the x-axis and also learn that the equation of a line of the x-axis can be written as #y=0#.
