Answer:

y - 4 = 2/3(x + 2)

Explanation:

In point slope form, it will look like: y - y1 = m(x - x1). If we know that (-2, 4) is x1 and y1 respectively, then the only thing we have left to do is solve for the slope itself. To find the slope, find (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). After inputting the numbers, we get (6 - 4)/1 - [-2]), which gives us 2/3 as the slope.
