Which is the graph of 3x-4y = 6

Note that this is the equation of a line, since you can rewrite it as


3x-4y=6 \iff 4y=3x-6 \iff y=(3)/(4)x-(3)/(2)

Now just choose two values for x and compute the correspondent y values:


x=0 \implies y=-(3)/(2)

So, the line passes through the point (0, -3/2).


x=2 \implies y=(3)/(2)-(3)/(2)=0

So, the line passes through the point (2, 0)

Now, draw on a coordinate plane the two points and connect them, and you'll have the line.

Reformat the equation to be in terms of y.
4y= 3x-6
y=3/4x -6/4
The y intercept when x=0 is -6/4
The x intercept when y=0 is 2
Simply draw the graph using these two points
