Question 268922: sketch a graph of the line that contains the indicated points and/or has the indicated slope and/or has the indicated intercepts. Write the equations of the line in the slope intecetpt from y=mx+b or in the form x=c.
(0,4); m=-3

we start with
y+=+mx+%2B+b
we are given x = 0, y = 4 and m = -3. By substitution, we get
4+=+-3%2A0+%2B+b
b+=+4
so the equation is
y+=+-3x+%2B+4
Here is the graph
