To find the answer to this question use the following formula: y-y1=m(x-x1).
For this equation x1 is the first number in the point and y1 is the second number in the point.
M=0.
Plug the numbers into the equations and simplify.

That is actually point-slope formula, so the final answer needs to be in y=mx+b (slope-intercept) form.
 
Since the slope=0, you have a horizontal line, so your equation will just be y=-12 (the y-value of the point on the line).
