SOLUTION: find the slope of this equation and show work thanks, 4x+5y=12

Question 547471: find the slope of this equation and show work thanks, 4x+5y=12
Answer by oberobic(2304) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
4x + 5y = 12
.
5y = -4x + 12
y = -4/5*x + 12/5
.
slope = -4/5
.
y-intercept = (0,12/5)
.
If you have one more point, you can draw a line.
.
Set y = 0 and solve for x, which is the x-intercept.
.
0 = -4/5*x + 12/5
4/5*x = 12/5
cross multiply
20x = 60
x = 3
.
x-intercept = (3,0).
.
