Here is the graph of function y=3y=3
graph{3+x*0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Explanation:

Recall the definition of a graph of function y=f(x)y=f(x).
Its graph is a set of all points (x,y)(x,y) on the coordinate plane that satisfy the equation y=f(x)y=f(x).

Obviously, all points (x,y)(x,y) on the horizontal line crossing the YY-axis at coordinate 33 satisfy the equation y=3y=3, regardless of its XX-coordinate.

Any points (x,y)(x,y) outside of this horizontal line has YY-coordinate not equal to 33 and, therefore, does not satisfy the equation y=3y=3.

This proves that the described above horizontal line is the graph of function y=3y=3.
