Field Documentation for Signal Paths

A telecommunications technician is documenting a straight signal path on a grid-based map. The path is known to pass through the point (−1,−3)(-1, -3) and has a slope of 4. Describe the specific procedure the technician should follow to graph this line and verify its accuracy. In your response, explain how the whole-number slope is interpreted as a fraction, identify the coordinates of the second point plotted, and describe how to find a third point to ensure the line is correctly drawn.
