%28y-1%29%2F%28x%2B3%29=-3%2F4......cross multiply
%28y-1%294+=%28x%2B3%29%28-3%29......
4y-4+=+-3x-9......
4y+=+-3x+-9+%2B+4......
4y+=+-3x+-+5+.........divide both sides by 4
4y%2F4+=+-3x%2F4+-+5%2F4+......simplify
cross%284%29y%2Fcross%284%29+=+-%283%2F4%29x+-+5%2F4+......
y+=+-%283%2F4%29x+-+5%2F4+......
