"see explanation"

Explanation:

"find the intercepts as follows"

• " let x = 0, in the equation for y-intercept"

• " let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept"

x=0to0-3y=12rArry=-4larrcolor(red)" y-intercept"

y=0to4x-0=12rArrx=3larrcolor(red)" x-intercept"

"plot the points "(0,-4),(3,0)"

"and draw a straight line through them for graph"
graph{4/3x-4 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
