Recall that, in order to graph a line we need two points on the line.

Evaluating the given function at x=0 we get:


\begin{gathered} y=(1)/(3)*0-4=0-4 \\ =-4. \end{gathered}

Therefore the graph of the given function passes through (0,-4).

Evaluating the given function at x=3 we get:


\begin{gathered} y=(1)/(3)*3-4=1-4 \\ =-3. \end{gathered}

Therefore the graph of the given function passes through (3,-3).

Then the graph of the given function is:
