for graph this equation,
we will calculate the point on this line,
the equation is
y = 1/2x-2
when x = 0
y = 1/2 (0) - 2
y = -2
thus, the point is (0, -2)
when x = 2
y = 1/2 (2) - 2
y = 1 - 2
y = -1
thus, the point is (2, -1)
when x = 4
y = 1/2(4) - 2
y = 2 - 2
y = 0
thus, the point is , (4, 0)
so we mark these points on the graph and join them to get a line on the graph.
