See my computations below.

You only need two non collinear points for graphing this line.

Put $x = 0$ $x=0$ so you will get $y = 4$ $y=4$

Put $y = 0$ $y=0$ so you will get: $2 x = 12$ $2x=12$ or $x = 6$ $x=6$

And we obtain two Points for graphing:

$P_{1} (6; 0), P_{2} (0; 4)$ $P_1(6;0),P_2(0;4)$
