Answer:
Explanation:
Let's answer this in y=mx+b form
We only need two pieces of info for this!
m=slope
b= y-intercept
We are given the slope of 1/2 and we can substitute this for m.
y=1/2x +b
Now, we have the points (6,-4) the x coordinate is 6 and the y is -4
We can substitute this in our equation and solve for b.
y=1/2x +b
-4=1/2(6) +b
Simplify 1/2 times (6) into 3
-4=3+b
Subtract 3 from both sides.
-7=b
Finally, we substitute this into our equation and get:
y=mx +b
y=1/2x+b
y=1/2x-7
