Answer:

see the attached image

Explanation:

In this problem, we are asked to graph a line that represents the equation
y=(3)/(4)x - 1.

We can recognize that this equation is in slope-intercept form:


y = mx + b

where m is the line's slope, and b is its y-coordinate of the line's y-intercept (the point where it touches the y-axis).

From this information, we can deduce that the line's slope (rise over run) is 3/4, and its y-intercept is (0, -1). — notice how x is 0, since the y-axis can be represented as the line x = 0

Using this information, we can graph the following points:

(-4, -4)

(0, -1)

(4, 2)

See the attachment for an image of the graph.
