x-intercept is 4, y-intercept is 3 and equation in general foorm is 3x4y12=0

Explanation:

As x-intercept of the line is 4, the line passes through (4,0). As its slope is 34, we can use point slpe form to find the equation and equation is

y0=34(x4)

or 4y=3x12 or 3x4y12=0 in general form

or y=34x3 in slope intercept form.

Hence, y-intercept is 3.
