Answer:

y =
(4)/(3) x + 2

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

8x - 6y + 12 = 0 ( subtract 8x + 12 from both sides )

- 6y = - 8x - 12 ( divide terms by - 6

y =
(-8)/(-6) x + 2 , that is

y =
(4)/(3) x + 2 ← in slope- intercept form
