What is the intercept of the equation 4x + 3y = 12?

4
3
-4
-3

The correct answer is: -4

The intercept is the value at which the graph of an equation crosses the x or y axis. In this equation, the y intercept is represented by the value of y when x is 0. To find this intercept, we can plug in 0 for x and solve for y. When we do this, we get 3y = 12, which means that y = 4. Therefore, the y intercept is 4. The other options do not represent the intercept in this equation, as they either refer to the coefficient of x or y, or a different value in the equation.
