You can put this solution on YOUR website!
+-3x+-+4y+%2B+4+=+0+
Add +3x+ to both sides
+-4y+%2B+4+=+3x+
Subtract +4+ from both sides
+-4y+=+3x+-+4+
Divide both sides by +-4+
+y+=+-%283%2F4%29%2Ax+%2B+1+
-----------------------
This is in the form +y+=+m%2Ax+%2B+b+
where +m+ = slope
slope = +-3%2F4+
------------------
The y-intercept is where +x=0+
+y+=+-%283%2F4%29%2A0+%2B+1+
+y+=+1+
The y-intercept is at ( 0,1 )
--------------------------
Here's the plot:
+graph%28+400%2C+400%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+-%283%2F4%29%2Ax+%2B+1+%29+
