Answer:

Explanation:

Given the linear equation, y = 3/2x - 6: where the slope, m = 3/2 and y-intercept, (0, -6).I plotted the y-intercept on the graph, then used the slope (3 rise, 2 run) to plot the other points on the graph and create a line.

The equation of a line format is y= mx + c, m being the slope and c being the y-intercept.

The slope is 3/2 and the y intercept is -6. So all you do is plug that information into the equation.

y= mx + c
y= 3/2 - 6

(I’m so sorry if i am wrong)
