Answer:

So start at the y intercept which is -1 in this case becuase the point slope formula goes like

y=mx+b

m= slope

b= y-intercept

Y= Ranodm Y coordinate

X= Random X coordinate

You don’t have to worry so much about the x and Y, the main focus while graphing is the slope (m) and the y-intercept (y)

So -1 is the y-intercept so you go to -1 on the graph on the Y axis, it should be right below 0.

Now to make the points, the slope is -3/4

So a slope is written rise/run

Rise is going up and run is going right

-3 is the rise

4 is the run

Since the slope is negative (due to having a negative on 1 side)

We just do the opposite for the rise

Go down 3 and go to the right 4.

There you have it
