Answer:

1. (AB) y = 2/3x + -4

Explanation:

Formula - y = m(x) + (y-intercept)

m = rise / run

"run = horizontal (left and right)

rise = vertical (up and down)"

the y intercept is always going to be where y is 0 at. (x, y) you will use your x to determine the intercept

So lets use your first question as an example

1. (AB) y = m(x) + (y-int)

y = m(x) + (-4)

the point goes to the right 6 points and goes up 4 points (rise / run)

y = 4/6(x) + (-4)

You can round up the fraction to 2/3

y = 2/3(x) + -4
