Hi Ashley,
Write the equation of the line with given slope and y-intercept. Then graph each line using the slope and y-intercept.
Slope: - 3/4; y-intercept: (0, 8)
The slope intercept form of a line is where m=slope and (0,b)= y-intercept.
Your slope is: m=-3/4 and (0,b)=(0,8)

Plot (0,8), from there use the slope=. Let your rise keep the sign and always run to the right. Go down 3 and right 4 and plot another point at what should be (4,5). Connect the dots and you have a line:

Happy Calculating, Ashley!!!
