\[y - 3 = -\frac{ 3 }{ 4 }(x+4) \]

Its in Point-Slope form. y - y1 = m(x - x1) You need it in Slope-Intercept form. y = mx + b --------------------------------------- Solve for y. y - 3 = -3/4(x + 4) Distribute. y - 3 = -3/4x - 3 Add 3. y = -3/4x + 0 There is your equation^. ----------------------------------------- Now you need to graph it. y = mx + b m is slope b is y-intercept -3/4 is slope 0 is y-intercept
y-intercept is where the line crosses the y axis. So, plot a point on (0, 0).
To find another point, remember that:\[slope= \frac{ rise }{ run }\] So from point (0, 0) you're going to go down 3 spaces. Then move across 4 spaces. This is your second point.
