We need to see the graph.
An easy way to make a match is to look for the intercepts and to check the slope.
To make the equation easier to work with, I would multiply through by a -12
8x + 3y = -4
If x = 0 they y = -4/3
If y = 0 then x = -1/2
look for the points
(0, -4/3) and (-1/2, 0)
the slope is negative
Match the equation with its graph
-2/3 x - 1/4y = 1/3
