Answer:

The y intercept is (0,1)

The equation of the line is y = -1/2x+1

Explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -1/2x+b

Substituting the point

2 = -1/2(-2) +b

2 = 1 +b

Subtract 1 from each side

1 =b

The y intercept is (0,1)

The equation of the line is y = -1/2x+1
