The graph of the function is

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information

The given data is a function with slope-3and point(-1,4)

02

Step 2. Calculation

Use the slope intercept form to find the linear equation by first finding the y-intercept.

y=mx+c4=(-3)(-1)+cc=4-3c=1

Thus, the linear function isy=-3x+1

03

Step 3. Graph

Graph the function by taking random values as follows,

Plot the points and graph the function.
