Explanation:

To find the y-intercept, you look for when the function is on the y-axis, so set x to 0

$3 (0) - 4 y = - 12$ $3(0) - 4y = -12$
$- 4 y = - 12$ $-4y = -12$

Divide both sides by -4 to isolate y
$y = 3$ $y = 3$

This means the ordered pair (0, 3) exists on the function
$3 x - 4 y = - 12$ $3x - 4y = -12$ .
