To find the x-intercept, we set y = 0 and solve for x:

12x - 4(0) = -7
12x = -7
x = -7/12

Therefore, the x-intercept is (-7/12, 0).

To find the slope, we can rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where m is the slope:

12x - 4y = -7
-4y = -12x - 7
y = 3x + 7/4

The slope of the line is 3.
