Well, that isn't a proper equation but if the equation is, y=4x(+/-)9... First: Put the "b" value into your graph. The "b" value is on the y-intercept, in this case, it would be (+/-)9. If it is +9, put it 9 values up on the y-axis. Vice-versa if negative. Second: The 4x would be the slope. The 4 represents the "a or m" value. Since the slope is 4, then you would start at the (+/-)9 and go UP:4 and OVER:1. This is the Rise Over Run technique. The reason you go over 1 is because 4=4/1 the 4 represents rise and the 1 represents run. (If the "m"value was 1/4 then you'd go up 1 and over 4). Lastly: Repeat that method over and over again until you run out of room on your graph. Then make a line connecting each dot and at the end of each line put arrows pointing outward displaying that the slope will be infinite.
