Question

Which graph represents the linear function below? y-4= (4/3)(x-2)

Answer 1

The graph in the attached figure

Explanation:

we have

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

This is the equation of a line into point slope form

The point is (2.4)

The slope is m=4/3

To plot the line find the intercepts

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

For x=0

y-4=(4/3)(0-2)

y=(-8/3)+4

y=4/3

The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of y is equal to zero

0-4=(4/3)(x-2)

-4=(4/3)x-(8/3)

Multiply by 3 both sides

-12=4x-8

4x=8-12

x=-1

we have the points

(2,4), (0,4/3),(-1,0)

Plot the line

Note With only two points it was necessary to draw the line. The third point was calculated for didactic purposes.
