Help please by slope and y- intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

mx = slope

b = intercept

1. Simplify the equation

4y = -3x - 12

2. Divide both sides by 4

y = -3/4 x - 3

3. Make a graph

First start at the y-intercept, (0, -3)*

Then, use the pattern -3/4

It is called rise over run.

But, when the slope is negative you have to go down instead of up. So you have to go down 3 and 4 to the right.

Continue that pattern until you get your result.

But when you have to go to the upper part of the graph go up 3 and over 4 to the left.

Continue this pattern.

This also applies to other graphs.

* = remember a y-intercept always has a 0 as the x - coordinate.

Hope this helped,
