Answer:

y = -1/2x

Explanation:

The equation is y = mx + b

m = the slope

b = y-intercept

The slope = rise/run

Let's pick 2 points (0,0) (4, -2), we see that the y decrease by 2 and the x increase by 4, so the slope is

m = -2/4 = -1/2

Y-intercept is located at (0,0)

So, our equation is

y = -1/2x
