Question 224280
Find the coordinates of two points on the given line, and then use those coordinates to find the slope of the line.
3y=4x



Step 1.  Find one point by letting x=0, then y=0.  So one point is (0,0)


Step 2.  Let x=3, then 3y=4*3=12 or y=4 after dividing by 3 to both sides of the equation.  So the other point is (3, 4).


Step 3.  Use the two points (0,0) and (3,4) to plot the line as shown below:


{{{graph(400, 400, -10,10, -10,10, 4x/3)}}}


Step 4.  ANSWER:  The slope is given as {{{m=(4-0)/(3-0)=4/3}}}


I hope the above steps and explanation were helpful.
