You can put this solution on YOUR website!
THE LINEAR LINE FORMULA IS:
Y=mX+b WHERE m=SLOPE & b=Y INTERCEPT.
YOUR PROBLEM IS NOT A LINEAR FORMULA BECAUSE IT HAS A COMPLEX TERM
Y=(12-X)/2X, 2XY=12-X (2XY) BEING THE COMPLEX FACTOR NOT A LINEAR TERM.
FOR NON-LINEAR GRAPHS THERE IS NO SLOPE DEFINED, & IN THIS CASE THERE IS NO Y INTERCEPT. (NO b VALUE)
Y=(12-X)/2X
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+y+=+%2812-x%29%2F2x%29+ (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 10, y = (12-x)/2x).
HOPE THIS HELPS.
