Answer:

see below

Explanation:

I attached a picture of the graph. The equation it gave you is in slope intercept form which is: y=mx+b the b or 8 in this situation is your y intercept or the place where the line touches the up and down (Y) line. Put your first point here

The number in front of the x is your slope. Here its -4/3

with slopes its rise over run. This means the top number decides how much it will move up or down (rise) and the bottom number tells you how much left or right (run)

So here since it's negative, you go 4 down. and 3 to the right of your y intercept point. Add this new point and draw a line in between the two,

Hope this helps :)
