Slope is #-3/4# and the y-intercept is #(0,6)#

Explanation:

Using the slope-intercept equation, #y=mx+b# where #m=#slope and #b=# y=intercept allows you to know the slope and when the line crosses the y-axis without using any charts or calculation.

Just by looking at the equation #y=-3/4x+6#, the slope (#m#) is #-3/4# and the y-intercept (#b#) is #(0,6)#
