Answer:
- y = 1/2x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Line passing through the point (2, -2)
- The slope is m = 1/2
The equation of a line:
- y = mx + b, where m is a slope, b is a y-intercept
Use the coordinates of the point and find the value of b:
- -2 = 1/2*2 + b
- -2 = 1 + b
- b = -2 - 1
- b = -3
The line is:
- y = 1/2x - 3
Answer:
y = ½x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 2
y = - 2
a = ½
y = ax + b
- 2 = ½(2) + b
- 2 = 1 + b
b = - 2 - 1
b = - 3
y = ax + b
y = ½x + (-3)
y = ½x - 3
