for line5x-4y=12, the y intercept is
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Manipulate the equation so that it is in the \"slope-intercept\" form:
\n" ); document.write( "y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "where
\n" ); document.write( "m is slope
\n" ); document.write( "b is y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "5x-4y=12
\n" ); document.write( "Subtracting 5x from both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "-4y= -5x+12
\n" ); document.write( "Dividing both sides by -4:
\n" ); document.write( "y= (-5/-4)x+ (12/-4)
\n" ); document.write( "y= (5/4)x + (-3)
\n" ); document.write( "y= (5/4)x - 3
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, the y-intercept at (0,-3)\r
