Answer:

A graph that goes through (4, 0), (8, -3), (0, 3), and (-4, 6)

Explanation:

Hello!

To find what this looks like it is easier to put it into slope-intercept form which is y = mx + b

To get our equation to look like that we have to get y by itself

3x + 4y = 12

Subtract 3x from both sides

4y = -3x + 12

Divide both sides by 4


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

We now know the y-intercept is (0, 3)

Now we follow the slope to give us more points

More points are (4, 0), (8, -3), and (-4, 6)

The answer would be a graph that goes through those points.

Hope this helps!
