Graph the line through (4,1) with slope 4/3
----------
There's more than 1 way to do that.
---
You can find an equation of the line, then plot 2 or more points and draw a straight line thru them.
Use y-y1 = m*(x-x1) where m= slope and (x1,y1) is the point.
====================
A quicker way:
m = 4/3 means that for a change in y of 4, the change in x is 3.
Add 4 to the y of (4,1) and 3 to the x to get a 2nd point.
Then draw a line thru them.

Just plot the point (4,1) and find any other points using vertical change 4, horizontal change 3, and draw the line through.
