Answer:

y = -2/3 x + 1/3

Explanation:

Use the slope-intercept linear formula: y = mx + b

x and y represent point on the line

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

The equation of the line requires "m" and "b". We already have "m".

Substitute point (-4, 3) and slope -2/3 into the formula. x=-4; y=3; m=-2/3. Find b by isolating the variable.

y = mx + b

3 = (-2/3)(-4) + b Simplify

3 = 8/3 + b Subtract 8/3 from both sides

b = 1/3

Put b = 1/3 into the formula.

y = -2/3 x + 1/3
