The graph is a linear graph

The equation of a linear graph is given in the form
y=mx+c where
m is the gradient and
c is the y-intercept

To find gradient:
Choose any two coordinates that lie on the line.
We choose (4,7) and (0, 10)

m= ( y_(1)- y_(0))/( x_(1)- x_(0) )

m= (10-7)/(0-4) =- (3)/(4)

the graph crosses the y-axis at 10, so the value of
c=10

Forming the equation

y=- (3)/(4) +10
