Answer:

(0, 4) or any point on the line y=3x+4

Explanation:

Find the slope of the equation

7 3/4-6 1/4

1 1/4-3/4

Which is 1.5/0.5, which simplifies to 3. Plug that slope into the equations.

y=mx+b, 6 1/4=3*3/4+b, b=4.

Now the equation is y=3x+4

Any point on this line is a solution, such as (0, 4)
