Step-by-step explanation:
You want a graph of 8x -6y = 0 from two ordered pairs that satisfy the equation.
Intercepts
We can find the x- and y-intercepts by solving the equation with y=0 and x=0, respectively. Doing that, we find ...
x-intercept = 0
y-intercept = 0
This means the origin (0, 0) is one point on the line.
Point
The difference of the x- and y-terms is zero, so we can find other points by using multiples of the y-coefficient for x while using multiples of the x-coefficient for y. Using (x, y) = (3, 4) we have ...
8·3 -6·4 = 0 . . . . . . (3, 4) is a point on the line
Plot
Now, we have the points (0, 0) and (3, 4), so we can graph the line as shown in the attachment.

Additional comment
The standard form of the equation has the common factor of 2 removed from the coefficients:
4x -3y = 0
This is the form that suggests the point (x, y) = (3, 4).
Writing the equation as a proportional relation, we have ...
[tex]y=\dfrac{4}{3}x[/tex]
This suggests that suitable integer values for x are those that are multiples of 3.
