Question 385080
To make this into a linear equation, you would divide everything by 4 to isolate the y.

4y/4=24/4-12x/4

y=6-3x

Normally this is written with the x term coming first, being located by the equal sign.

y=-3x+6  This is in slope-intercept form.

y=mx+b  m=slope   b=y-intercept

So for your equation, you would have a slope of -3 and a y-intercept of 6.
