Write the equation in slope-intercept form

Answer:
General equation of a line:
[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]
m » gradient
b » y-intercept
• considering point (-6, 12):
[tex]12 = ( - \frac{5}{12} \times - 6) + b \\ \\ 12 = \frac{5}{2} + b \\ \\ b = \frac{19}{2} [/tex]
• equation:
[tex]2y = - \frac{5}{6} x + {19} \\ [/tex]
