Answer:

(-6, 0) and (0, 1.5)

Explanation:

The equation of the line in pint slope form is expressed as;

y-y0= m(x-x0)

m is the slope

(x0, y0) is the point on the line

Given

m = 1/4

(x0, y0) = (6,3)

Substitute into the formula;

y - 3 = 1/4(x-6)

4(y-3) = x - 6

4y - 12 = x-6

4y - x = -6+12

4y - x = 6

x = 4y - 6

To get the points to plot, we will find the x and y-intercept of the resulting expression.

For the x-intercept,

at y = 0

x = 4(0) - 6

x = -6

Hence the x-intercept is at (-6, 0)

For the y-intercept,

at x = 0

0 = 4y - 6

4y = 6

y = 6/4

y = 3/2

y = 1.5

Hence the y-intercept is at (0, 1.5)

Hence the required points to plot to get the required line are (-6, 0) and (0, 1.5)
