Rewrite in Slope-Intercept Form 6x-3y=12

$6 x - 3 y = 12$

The slope-intercept form is $y = m x + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

$y = m x + b$

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

Subtract $6 x$ from both sides of the equation.

$- 3 y = 12 - 6 x$

Divide each term by $- 3$ and simplify.

Tap for more steps…

Divide each term in $- 3 y = 12 - 6 x$ by $- 3$ .

$\frac{- 3 y}{- 3} = \frac{12}{- 3} + \frac{- 6 x}{- 3}$

Cancel the common factor of $- 3$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 3 y}{- 3} = \frac{12}{- 3} + \frac{- 6 x}{- 3}$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$y = \frac{12}{- 3} + \frac{- 6 x}{- 3}$

Simplify $\frac{12}{- 3} + \frac{- 6 x}{- 3}$ .

Factor $- 3$ out of $- 3$ .

$y = - 4 + \frac{- 3 (2 x)}{- 3 (1)}$

Cancel the common factor.

$y = - 4 + \frac{- 3 (2 x)}{- 3 \cdot 1}$

Rewrite the expression.

$y = - 4 + \frac{2 x}{1}$

Divide $2 x$ by $1$ .

$y = - 4 + 2 x$

Reorder $- 4$ and $2 x$ .

$y = 2 x - 4$
