Answer:

y = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex], thus

y = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, 4) into the partial equation

4 = - 4 + c ⇒ c = 4 + 4 = 8

y = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] x + 8 ← equation of line
