Answer

$ y = \frac{4}{3} x -3$

Work Step by Step

We first put this into slope intercept form $4x = 3y+ 9 \\ 3y = 4x -9 \\ y = \frac{4}{3} x -3$ To plot this graph, first plot the y-intercept, which is $(0,-3)$. Next, using the slope and recalling that it equals rise over run, go up four units and over three to the point (3,1). Draw a line that goes through each of these points.
