Answer:
y = 2x - 6
y = 1/3x - 4
y = -3/4x - 4
y = 5/8x
y = 2x + 3
y = -1/2x + 3
y = -3x + 5
y = -3/4x - 1
y = 2/3x - 1
y = -3x - 6
y = -1/2x + 5
y = -x - 5
y = -4
y = 5/2x + 1
y = -4x + 2
x = 3
y = -4x - 5
y = -3
y = 5/2x + 4
x = 4
y = -x + 2
y = 1/6x + 4
1. **State the problem:** Find the equation of line AB given as $$y=\frac{2}{3}x - 4$$ and match it with the correct answer from the list.
2. **Recall the slope-intercept form:** The equation of a line is $$y=mx+b$$ where $$m$$ is the slope and $$b$$ is the y-intercept.
3. **Given:** $$y=\frac{2}{3}x - 4$$ means slope $$m=\frac{2}{3}$$ and y-intercept $$b=-4$$.
4. **Match with answers:** From the answer list, find the equation with slope $$\frac{2}{3}$$ and intercept $$-4$$.
5. **Check answers:** The answer $$y=\frac{2}{3}x - 1$$ is close but intercept differs.
6. **Conclusion:** The equation of AB is $$y=\frac{2}{3}x - 4$$ as given.
Since the user asked for the first problem only, this is the solution.
**Final answer:** $$y=\frac{2}{3}x - 4$$
