The\ slope-intercept\ form:y=mx+b\\\\m-the\ slope;\ b-y-intercept



(1)\\12x+3y=9\\3y=-12x+9\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 3\\y=-4x+3\\\boxed{m=-4;\ b=3}\\\\(2)\\6x-2y=2\\-2y=-6x+2\ \ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ (-2)\\y=3x-1\\\boxed{m=3;\ b=-1}


(3)\\2x+5y=10\\5y=-2x+10\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\y=-(2)/(5)x+2\\\boxed{m=-(2)/(5);\ b=2}\\\\(4)\\9x-3y=-1\\-3y=-9x-1\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ (-3)\\y=3x+(1)/(3)\\\boxed{m=3;\ b=(1)/(3)}


(5)\\4y+6x=2\\4y=-6x+2\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 4\\y=-(6)/(4)x+(2)/(4)\\y=-(3)/(2)x+(1)/(2)\\\boxed{m=-(3)/(2);\ b=(1)/(2)}\\\\(6)\\8y-2x=5\\8y=2x+5\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 8\\y=(2)/(8)x+(5)/(8)\\y=(1)/(4)x+(5)/(8)\\\boxed{m=(1)/(4);\ b=(5)/(8)}


(7)\\5x+5y=3\\5y=-5x+3\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\y=-x+(3)/(5)\\\boxed{m=-1;\ b=(3)/(5)}\\\\(8)\\-4y=16\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ (-4)\\y=-4\\\boxed{m=0;\ b=-4}\\\\(9)\\6x=12\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 6\\x=2\\\boxed{m\ and\ b\ not\ exist}
