I used photo math hope this helps just know it's going downward because 3/4 is negative

Answer:


Explanation:

I'd suggest you write y−2=−3/4(x−6) as y−2=(−3/4)(x−6), so that there's no ambiguity regarding whether (x-6) is in your numerator or your denominator.

Comparing this y−2=(−3/4)(x−6) to y-k = m(x-h), we see that the slope of this line is -3/4 and that the given point on the line is (6,2).

Plot a dark, solid dot at (6,2), and recall that the slope is -3/4. Starting at this dot, move 4 spaces to the right, place another dot there, and then from this new dot move 3 units DOWN. Plot a final dot there. Then draw a line thrugh (6,2) and this new point.
