Helaine graphed the equation 12 x minus 4 y is equal to 3 What was the slope of Helaine’s line?

Answer
A
negative 4
B
12
C
negative 12
D
3

Explanation

Rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope. From 12x − 4y = 3, subtract 12x from both sides and divide by −4 to get y = 3x − 3/4. The coefficient of x is 3, so the slope is 3, choice D.
