Answer:

x-intercept- (-1.2,0)

y-intercept- (0,6)

Explanation:

To find the slope-intercept form, we have to find x and y.

First, find x. Get rid of the 2y, and the equation will look like this.

-10x=12

Now, divide both sides by -10.

12/-10=-1.2

The x-intercept would be (-1.2,0)

To find the y-intercept form, do the same thing.

Get rid of the -10x.

2y=12

Divide by 2 on both sides.

y=6

The y-intercept form would be (0,6)

Hope this helps! :D
