Answer:

y =
-(5)/(12) x Slope is
-(5)/(12); y-intercept is
-(11)/(12).

Explanation:

-5x - 12y = 11 Add 5x to each side.

-12y = 5x + 11 Divide each side by -12.

y =
-(5)/(12) x + (-(11)/(12) ) Change the + to -.

y =
-(5)/(12) x - (11)/(12)

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b, so slope is
-(5)/(12); y-intercept is
-(11)/(12).

The slope is -5/12

And the y-intercept is (0, -11/12)
