Answer by jojo14344(1513) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

Thru point SLope-Form, we can compute for the slope thru 2 given points (-4,0) and (0,6).

But we'll do thru the graph by drawing a line thru the points:
--->

As you can see, we moved up or down "3" spaces and left or right "2" spaces as we get the slope. There's a rise of 3 and a run of 2.

It follows, , Answer

Any parallel line to this will be the same slope,

Drawing a line from the origin, parallel to the line above:

Thru point(0,0) with slope , m=3/2:

, Y-Intercept

It follows,
---> ;

Thank you,
