Answer

y=23x103 is the final answer.

Steps

Step 1 :We are given a point (-4,-6) and a slope of 23.

Step 2 :We can use the slope-intercept form of a line, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Step 3 :We substitute the given point and slope into the equation to solve for b.

Step 4 :Substituting m=23 and the point (-4,-6) into the equation, we get 6=23(4)+b.

Step 5 :Solving for b, we get b=103.

Step 6 :Thus, the equation of the line is y=23x103.

Step 7 :To graph this line, we plot the y-intercept at 103 on the y-axis.

Step 8 :From this point, we rise 2 units and run 3 units to plot the next point due to the slope of 23.

Step 9 :We continue this pattern to complete the graph of the line.

Step 10 :y=23x103 is the final answer.
