Answer: See below

Concept:

There are different forms of linear equations:

  • Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
  • Point-slope form: y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)
  • Standard form: Ax + By = C
  • Intercept form: x / x₁ + y / y₁ = 1

Solve:

Given: y - 3 = 1/2 (x + 2)

Here, we can see the linear equation is in the form of point-slope form.

x₁ = -2

y₁ = 3

m = 1/2

Point included in the graph = (-2, 3)

Slope of the graph = 1/2

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions
