Answer:
See the attached graph.
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope form of the equation for a line through point (h, k) with slope m is ...
... y -k = m(x -h)
The numbers in your given equation translate to ...
... m = 3/4, (h, k) = (-2, 3)
So, we know that one point on the line is (-2, 3). Another point on the line will be 3 units up and 4 units to the right of that. (Slope = (change in y)/(change in x) = 3/4.) Then a second point on the line will be (-2+4, 3+3) = (2, 6).
