Answer:


f(x)=(1)/(2)x-1

Explanation:

The equation of the graph can be obtained using the formula:


(x)/(x-intercept)+(y)/(y-intercept)=1

From the graph, the y-intercept is -1 and the x-intercept is 2

We substitute these values to get:


(x)/(2)+(y)/(-1)=1


(x)/(2)-y=1

This implies that;


(x)/(2)-1=y

Or


y=(1)/(2)x-1

The function notation is


f(x)=(1)/(2)x-1
