I got -6, -5, -4, and -3 as my answers when I was trying to solve for y to complete a function table when the rule is 1/2x+(-4).Did I get the right answers?

Rule:


(1)/(2)x+(-4)

x= -4


\begin{gathered} y=(1)/(2)(-4)+(-4) \\ \\ y=-(4)/(2)-4 \\ \\ y=-2-4 \\ \\ y=-6 \end{gathered}

x= -2


\begin{gathered} y=(1)/(2)(-2)+(-4) \\ \\ y=-(2)/(2)-4 \\ \\ y=-1-4 \\ \\ y=-5 \end{gathered}

x=0


\begin{gathered} y=(1)/(2)(0)+(-4) \\ \\ y=0-4 \\ \\ y=-4 \end{gathered}

x=2


\begin{gathered} y=(1)/(2)(2)+(-4) \\ \\ y=(2)/(2)-4 \\ \\ y=1-4 \\ \\ y=-3 \end{gathered}
