You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You are given either the x-value or the y-value for the equation.
Substitute that number properly and solve for the other variable.
For example:
(0, )
You are given that x=0
Substitute that into the equation to get:
3(0)+4y=12
0+4y=12
4y=12
y=3
Therefore you get the point (0,3)
Try that with the others.
You should get (3,3/4), (4,0) and (8/3,1)
