its very easy to find the intercepts of line ist express the equation of line in two intercepts form x/a +y/b=1 where a and b are x and y intercepts . let us divide the equation by 12 on both sides we get x/4+y/3=1 so 4 and 3 are x and y intercepts respectively

Verified answer
3x-12=4y
3/4x-3=y
y=3/4x-3
Y-int:
y=0-3
y=-3
x=int:
0=3/4x-3
3=3/4x
4=x
A parallel line always has the same slope as the original one. -2/5 would be perpendicular to the line with the slope of 5/2.
Y intercept is -3. X intercept is 4.
y int= -3
x int = 4
cuz in order to find y int,
put 0 into x
and it's -4y=12
y= -3
for x int, put 0 into y
it's 3x=12 , x=4
and if a line has a slope of 5/2, the parallel line would have a slope of 5/2. NOT -2/5 . -2/5 is for the perpendicular line
