The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.
Following that kind of form becomes
2y = -8x + 1
y =(-8x + 1)/2
y = -4x + 1/2

For this problem, I'd use cross-multiplication.
9/12 = x/8.
When cross multiplying, multiply 12*x and 9*8. This leads to a new equation:
12x = 72.
Then you solve as an algebra problem.
*Divide 12 on both sides*
x = 6.
The common difference is 2
