Answer:

Graph below

Explanation:

Graph of a Function

We are given the function

y = f(x) = -4/3x + 8

Since this is the equation of a line, we only need two points to draw the graph, but we'll calculate some points more.

Select values for x={-3, 0, 3, 6, 9}

For x=-3:

y = -4/3(-3) + 8 = 4 + 8 = 12

Point (-3,12)

For x=0:

y = -4/3(0) + 8 = 0 + 8 = 8

Point (0,8)

For x=3:

y = -4/3(3) + 8 = -4 + 8 = 4

Point (3,4)

For x=6:

y = -4/3(6) + 8 = -8 + 8 = 0

Point (6,0)

For x=9:

y = -4/3(9) + 8 = -12 + 8 = -4

Point (9,-4)

Now plot the points in a rectangular grid and join them. The graph is shown below.
