Question

Find the y-intercept for the following function: 3x-4y=12

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope is 3/4

The y-intercept is (0, -3)

Answer 2

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out what the y-intercept is, we must first put the equation into slope-intercept form: y = mx + b. (M is the slope & b is the y-intercept)

3x-4y=12

(3x-3x) - 4y = 12 - 3x

-4y = 12 - 3x

-4y = -3x + 12

-4y/-4 = -3x + (12/-4)

Y = -3x + (-3) or y = -3x -3

Hope this helps!
