If you're looking for the cartesian form of this straight line then that would be,


- 3x - 2y + 8 = 0

If you're looking for the equation in the form of y=mx+b, then:


y = - (3)/(2) x + (8)/(2)


y = - (3)/(2) + 4

Where -3/2 is the slope of the line

and 4 is the intersection with the y-axis (0,4)

if you want to graph this line, just take values of x and find their y, and plot these points.

finally join the points to get the graph of the line.

hope this clears things up
