Problem:
Write the equation of the line with the given slope and y-intercept. The graph the line using the slope and y-intercept.
Slope:-3/4 ; y-intercept: (0, 8)
-------------
Plot the point (0,8)
If the slope is -3/4 that means "as x increases 4, y decreases by 3.
Put your pencil on (0,8); move it 4 to the right and 3 down; you
arrive at the point (0+4,8-3) or (4,5); Plot that point.
Now draw a line thru the two points. That is the graph you want.
