What is the slope-intercept form of this equation?

quester [9]

8X+6Y=12

Here's how you solve it:

Just isolate y by itself to get y-intercept form.
This is the formula: Y=MX+B

M is the slope or the number next to X in the original problem.

First:
6Y=-8X+12

Next:
divided everything by 6

Y=-4/3+2

I think the answer is A!
