See the explanation.

Explanation:

Graph #y=4-3x#.

I prefer to write the slope intercept form for a linear equation with the slope first on the right side. #y=mx+b#, where #m# is slope and #b# is y-intercept.

Graph #y=-3x+4#

To graph a straight line you only need two points. Identify a value for #x#, then solve for #y#.

Point 1 #(x=0)#
#(0,4)#

Point 2 #(x=-2)#
#(-2,10)#

Plot the points and draw a straight line through them.

graph{y=-3x+4 [-11.77, 10.73, -0.675, 10.575]}
