What is the slope and y-intercept of the graph of 3x + 2y = 12? slope = negative 3 over 2; y-intercept = (0, 6) slope = -3; y-intercept = (0, 12) slope = negative 2 over 3; y-intercept = (0, 6) slope = 6; y-intercept = (0, negative 3 over 2)

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

put this in a slope intercept form which is: y = mx + b Here are some steps to get you started: 2y = -3x + 12

i already have that

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

what's your next step?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i divide both sides by 2?

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer i got isnt one of the choices

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

y = -3/2x + 6 Slope is: (-3/2) Intercept is: (0,6)

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

Yea, that is the first option.

so its a
