Question:
how would you do the problem slope:3/2, y intercept:-4
Answer:
The slope intercept form of line is given by,
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Here it is given that,
slope,

And y-intercept = -4

So the equatio is given by,






Which is the required equation.
You can further simplify this as follows...


Multiply through out by 2

==>


==>

Further.... subtract 3x from both sides...

==>

==>


Hope you found the explanation useful.
