Answer:

The equation of the line that has a slope of 3/2 and a y-intercept of -4 is:

y=3/2x-4.

Explanation:

You want to find the equation for a line that has a slope of 3/2 and a y-intercept of -4. First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b Where: m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept

All you really have to do here is replace m with 3/2, which is the slope you gave, and replace b with -4, the y-intercept you gave, in the equation y=mx+b.
