12x+3y=-18
Slope intercept form: y = mx + b
Solve for y
12x+3y=-18
Subtract 12x from both sides
3y = -12x -18
Divide both sides by 3
y = -4x - 6
Answer
y = -4x - 6

Answer:

y = - 4 x - 6

Explanation:

We need to solve for "y".

12 x + 3 y = - 18

subtract 12 x from both sides:

3 y = - 12 x - 18

divide both sides by "3" to isolate "y";

y = -12/3 x - 18/3

y = - 4 x - 6

This is the sloe intercept form of the given line
