The linear equation is y = 4x - 4
And the graph of the linear equation can be seen in the image below.
<h3>How to graph the last line?</h3>
It seems that you already are good at graphing, so I will try to explain how to find the equation more in detail.
Remember that a general linear equation is written as:
y = a*x + b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
In this case, we know that the y-intercept is -4, then b = -4, replacing that we get:
y = a*x - 4
Now we also can see that this line passes through the point (2, 4), this means that if we evaluate in x = 2, the outcome should be y = 4, replacing that we get:
4 = a*2 - 4
4 + 4 = a*2
8 = a*2
8/2 = a = 4
Then the slope is 4, and the linear equation is:
y = 4x - 4
The graph is below.

Answer:
If we assume that everyone in the group is an owner, we would have
legs.
legs
Therefore, we need 24 more legs.
These 24 additional legs can be made from the difference of legs between the owners and dogs.
In this case, dogs have more legs than an owner.
24 ÷ 2 = 12.
There are 12 dogs in the group.
