Now draw a line passing through the points:(0, 4) and (6, 0).

Explanation:

y=(-2/3)x+4 => equation of a line in slope-intercept form
To draw a straight line all you need is two points on the line, then you can draw a line passing through the points.

Give some values to x then solve for y:
x = 0
y=(-2/3)*0+4
y=4 => so point (0, 4) is on the line
x = 6
y=(-2/3)*6+4
y=-4+4
y=0 => so point (6, 0) is on the line
Now draw a line passing through the points:(0, 4) and (6, 0).
