To find the value of b in the linear equation y = mx + b, where m is the rate of change, we can use one of the given points and substitute the values into the equation.
Let's use the point (-4, 6):
6 = (2/3)(-4) + b
6 = -8/3 + b
b = 6 + 8/3
b = 18/3 + 8/3
b = 26/3
Therefore, the value of b is 26/3.
Let's use the point (-4, 6):
6 = (2/3)(-4) + b
6 = -8/3 + b
b = 6 + 8/3
b = 18/3 + 8/3
b = 26/3
Therefore, the value of b is 26/3.
