Answer:
y = -16
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=3/4x+12 (replace f(x) with y)
y =3/4x+12 (rearrange to express x in terms of y)
y - 12=3/4 x
3/4 x = y - 12
3x = 4(y - 12)
x = (4/3)(y - 12)
x = (4/3)y - (4/3)(12)
x = (4/3)y - 16
(y) = (4/3)y - 16
(x) = (4/3)x - 16
comparing to general form
y = mx + b where b is the y-intercept
b = -16
Hence the y-intercept is y = -16
