First, you want to get your y's on the left side and everything else on the right.
3y = 2x + 12
Then you divide by 3, to find out what a single y is.
y = (2/3)x + 4

Okay, first you have the given -2x+3y-12, right? Now follow these steps:
-2x+3y=12
+2x +2x
----------------
3y=2x+12
--- --- ---
3 3 3
y=2/3x+4
First you add 2x to both sides
Then you divide 3 by all the numbers
And your answer should come out like mine.
Try it and see.

-2x+3y=12
to solve for y you must put x=0
so
-2(0)+3y=12
3y=12
y=4
y-intercept form
-2x+3y=12
3y=12+2x
y=(12+2x)/3

y= 2/3X + 4, and that is in y-intercept form. however you really should be doing this on your own.
