Answer

The slope is $2$, and the $y-$ intercept is $-4$.

Work Step by Step

The given equation is $\Rightarrow 3y=6x-12$ Divide each side by $3$. $\Rightarrow \frac{3y}{3}=\frac{6x-12}{3}$ Simplify. $\Rightarrow y=2x-4$ The slope-intercept form is $y=mx+b$ Where, slope $=m$ and $y-$intercept is $=b$. Hence, the slope is $2$, and the $y-$ intercept is $-4$.
