Please show all of your work

Describe the graph of 3x - 4y = 12 (Include the following in your answer)

a) Slope

b) y-intercept

c) x-intercept

d) Direction of the line (up right, down right)

Thanks

Answer 1

a) rearrange ur given formula into the form y=mx+b
y=(3x/4)-3
so the slope is m therefore (3/4)

Answer 2

b)for the y intercept set x =0
3(0)-4y=12
y=-3

Answer 3

c) x intercept set y=0
3x-4(0)=12
x=4

Answer 4

the line is sloping up (increasing)

Answer 5

start off with y = mx + b that's your equation with m being your slope with b being your y intercept so use algebra to rearrange the equation to that. once you have the y intercept set y to zero and solve for x if you need help let me know
