To graph by intercepts:
Plug zero in for x and solve for y.
Plug zero in for y and solve for x.
y = (-1/2)(0) -3
y = -3
(0,-3)

0= (-1/2)x -3
3= (-1/2)x
-6 = x
(-6,0)

Answer:

Graph is attached below

Step-by-step explanation:

Intercepts are values of x and y at which the graph of the function intersects coordinate axis.

Given equation,

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x - 3[/tex]

For x-intercept,

y = 0,

[tex]\implies 0 =-\frac{1}{2}x - 3[/tex]

[tex]3 =-\frac{1}{2}x[/tex]

[tex]\implies x =-6[/tex]

Thus, x-intercept is at (-6, 0)  

For y-intercept,

x = 0,

[tex]\implies y =-\frac{1}{2}(0) - 3=-3[/tex]

Thus, y-intercept is at  (0, -3)

Now, join these two points to show the line in coordinate plane.
