The coordinates of two points on the line can be represented as:

(x1, y1)=(-1, 3)

(x2, y2)=(2, -1)

Now, the slope of the line can be calculated as,


\begin{gathered} m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) \\ =(-1-3)/(2-(-1)) \\ =(-4)/(3) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the slope of the line is -4/3.

Now, plot the points on the graph and join them to obtain the line.

The graph of the line is given as:
