Answer

\(\boxed{y = \frac{4}{3}x - 4}\) is the equation in slope-intercept form, with a slope of \(\frac{4}{3}\) and a y-intercept of -4.

Steps

Step 1 :Convert the given equation into slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b:

Step 2 :\(4x - 3y = 12\)

Step 3 :\(-3y = -4x + 12\)

Step 4 :\(y = \frac{4}{3}x - 4\)

Step 5 :\(\boxed{y = \frac{4}{3}x - 4}\) is the equation in slope-intercept form, with a slope of \(\frac{4}{3}\) and a y-intercept of -4.
