For identifying the slope of a line, is easier if we get the equation to its slope-intercept form, that is: y = mx + b where m is the slope, and b is the y axis intercept. So we'll change the original equations and get them to this form:
<span>3y+ x= 12 3y = -x + 12 y = (-1/3) + 4 therefore the slope is -1/3 and the y-axis intercept is 4
-9x + 4y = 16 4y = 9x + 16 y = (9/4)x + 4 therefore the slope is 9/4 and the y-axis intercept is 4</span>
