To match each description with the correct equation of the line, let's analyze each line given in the question.

  1. A line that has a slope of 5/3 and a y-intercept of -4.

    • This can be written in slope-intercept form: \(y = mx + b\) → \(y = \frac{5}{3}x - 4\).
    • However, none of the given equations match this directly.
  2. A line that contains the point (0, -8) with a slope of 32.

    • Again, using the slope-intercept form: \(y = mx + b\) → \(y = 32x - 8\).
    • None of the options match this equation either.
  3. A line that contains the points (0, -2) and (4, 0).

    • The slope \(m\) between these points can be calculated as: \[ m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{0 - (-2)}{4 - 0} = \frac{2}{4} = \frac{1}{2}. \]
    • The y-intercept is -2, thus the line can be written as: \[ y = \frac{1}{2}x - 2. \]
    • This does not match any options either.
  4. A line that contains the y-intercept (0, -2) and a slope of −34.

    • This can be expressed in the slope-intercept form as: \[ y = -34x - 2. \]
    • Again, this does not match.

Now let's evaluate the given equations from the answers:

  • Option 1: \( y = -\frac{3}{4}x - 2 \)
  • Option 2: \( -5 + 3y = -12 \)
  • Option 3: \( y = \frac{3}{2}x - 8 \)
  • Option 4: \( 2y - x = -4 \)

Rearranging these equations to isolate y to evaluate matches:

  1. \( y = -\frac{3}{4}x - 2 \)
  2. Rearranging \( -5 + 3y = -12 \) we get \( 3y = -7 \rightarrow y = -\frac{7}{3} \quad \text{(Not a match)} \)
  3. \( y = \frac{3}{2}x - 8 \)
  4. Rearranging \( 2y - x = -4 \): \( 2y = x - 4 \rightarrow y = \frac{1}{2}x - 2 \quad \text{(Matches 3)}\)

Now we can match:

  1. A slope of 5/3 and y-intercept of -4 → does not match any equations.
  2. A point (0, -8) with slope of 32 → does not match either.
  3. (0, -2) and (4, 0) → matched with\( 2y - x = -4\) (which can be confirmed again to be slope \( \frac{1}{2} \)).
  4. (0, -2) and slope of −34 → does not match any given equation.

So, based on accuracy let's collate:

  1. Line with slope 5/3, y-intercept -4 → Not possible.
  2. Line through (0, -8) with slope 32 → Not possible.
  3. Line inter / slope from required points → Matches as \(2y - x = -4\).
  4. Last one (-34 steep) → incorrect interpretation, returns to evaluate.

If exact matches can't apply - clearer entries must be updated; please confirm points or assist more accurately for further input.
