Step 1.1

Use the formula for the equation of a line to find

b

$b$ .

y = m x + b

$y = m x + b$

Step 1.2

Substitute the value of

m

$m$ into the equation.

y = (3) \cdot x + b

$y = (3) \cdot x + b$

Step 1.3

Substitute the value of

x

$x$ into the equation.

y = (3) \cdot (0) + b

$y = (3) \cdot (0) + b$

Step 1.4

Substitute the value of

y

$y$ into the equation.

- 4 = (3) \cdot (0) + b

$- 4 = (3) \cdot (0) + b$

Step 1.5

Find the value of

b

$b$ .

Step 1.5.1

Rewrite the equation as

(3) \cdot (0) + b = - 4

$(3) \cdot (0) + b = - 4$ .

(3) \cdot (0) + b = - 4

$(3) \cdot (0) + b = - 4$

Step 1.5.2

Simplify

(3) \cdot (0) + b

$(3) \cdot (0) + b$ .

Step 1.5.2.1

Multiply

3

$3$ by

0

$0$ .

0 + b = - 4

$0 + b = - 4$

Step 1.5.2.2

Add

0

$0$ and

b

$b$ .

b = - 4

$b = - 4$

b = - 4

$b = - 4$

b = - 4

$b = - 4$

b = - 4

$b = - 4$

Step 2

Now that the values of

m

$m$ (slope) and

b

$b$ (y-intercept) are known, substitute them into

y = m x + b

$y = m x + b$ to find the equation of the line.

y = 3 x - 4

$y = 3 x - 4$
