From the graph, we can write that

The equatuon of line passes through (0,4) and

(-8,0) points.

So


\sf \: slope \: \: m = (4 - 0)/(0 - ( - 8)) = (4)/(8) = (1)/(2) \\ \therefore \green{\sf \: m = (1)/(2) }

Intercept of Y-axis c = 4

So equation is :


\bf \: y = mx + c \\ \bf = > y = (1)/(2) x + 4 \\ \bf = > 2y = x + 4 \\ \bf= > \orange{ \boxed{ \bf \: x - 2y + 4 = 0}}
