You can put this solution on YOUR website! The slope intercept form of an equation is in the form:
...
y = mx + b, where m = the slope and b = the y-intercept
...
Given: 3x - 4y = 12,
...
Add 4y to both sides:
3x = 12 + 4y
...
Subtract 12 from both sides:
3x - 12 = 4y
...
Divide both sides by 4:
3/4x - 3 = y
...
Turn it around so it is more familiar to read:
y = 3/4x - 3
...
m = 3/4
b = -3
...
