how would u graph y=3/2x+4
sorry im not good at fractions
how would you graph y=1/4x

The first question I answered below at the original post. The second question is done the same way that I answered for x=4 except this one has a vertical line parallel to the y axis and passing through the point (1/4,0).
a nice trick to use if you have fractions for the slope is to use numbers which divide by the denominator.
e.g. for y = (3/2)x + 4 , I would pick even values of x
x = 4, then y =(3/2)(4) + 4 = 10
x = -2 , then y = (3/2)(-2) + 4 = 1
You now have two simple points (4,10) and (-2,1) to plot and draw the line
do the same for the second, pick multiples of 4 for your x's
