Write an equation of the line given the following conditions: The same slope as the line 3x+4y=12 and the same y-intercept as the line y=7x.

please help.

Can we take 3x + 4y = 12 and find the slope? How do we get y by itself?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=3/-4x+3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the slope is -3/4. Now we need the y-intercept. What is the y-intercept of y = 7x |dw:1325636355448:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The y-intercept is 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We are done! y = (-3/4)x
