The slope of 3x + 4y = 12 is m = -3/4

To get the slope, you must use the slope-intercept form y = mx + b to find the slope.

The x-intercept of 3x + 4y = 12 are located at: (4,0)

To find the x-intercept, you must substitute in 0 for y and solve for x.

The y-intercept of 3x + 4y = 12 are located at: (0,3)

To find the y-intercept, you must substitute in 0 for x and solve for y.

Please view the graph attached below that has the slope and intercepts of 3x + 4y = 12 sketched.
