Answer:B) -2x + 3y = 12 represents the graph.The y-intercept is 4, and the line intercepts the x-axis at -6. Therefore, the slope of the line is 4/6=2/3. The format for a linear equation is y=(slope)x+y intercept. So the equation would be y=2/3x+4. We can see that option B simplifies that. Adding 2x from both sides of the equation and we get 3y=2x+12.
