Using the formula y=mx+b we know that m=slope and b= y-intercept. So what your just doing is plugging in. So it would be Y= -3/2x-4 . I hope that helps! ^^

Answer:

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

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = -
(3)/(2) and c = - 4 , thus

y = -
(3)/(2) x - 4 ← equation of line
