The equation indicates it is a line.Solve for the intersection of the line with the axes. This is one of the several ways to graph a line.

From the given: $y=(3x)/2-4$ ,Set $x=0$

then $y=-4$

$y=-4$ when $x=0$

a point is located at $(0, -4)$

next, set $y=0$ , then solve for $x$

that is $0=(3x)/2-4$

so that $x=8/3$

$x=8/3$ when $y=0$

another point is located at $(8/3, 0)$

plot the two points

graph{y=(3x)/2-4 [-10, 10, -6, 6]}
