Given the equation 3x-y = 4.

Write the equation in slope intercept form, that is, y = mx+b.


y=3x-4

Comparing with y = mx+b gives m = 3 and b = -4.

So, the slope of the given equation is 3 and y-intercept is -4.

To graph the line, find two points on the line, plot them and join them to get the required line.

When x = 0, y = -4.

When x = 1, y = -1.

The two points on the graph are (0,-4) and (1,-1). Graph the line.
