Answer:

y = -1/2 x -3

Explanation:

The slope is the steepness of the line. Look at the points plotted on the graph. To go from one point to the other you can go down 1 unit and right 2 units or if you are going the opposite direction of up 1 unit and left 2 units.

The slope is negative because it is gong down from left to right.

The y-intercept is -3. This is where is crosses the y axis.

slope -1/2 (m)

y -intercept -3( b)

y = mx + b

y = -1/2 x - 3
