Answer:

y = 1/2x - 1

Explanation:

This formula is currently written in point-slope form (y+ + y1 = m (x + x1). To graph it easier, the first thing you would do is make it slope-intercept form (y=mx + b).

First, distribute the 1/2 into the parenthesis.

1/2(x+2)

1/2x + 1

Then, the equation should look like this: y+2 = 1/2x + 1

The next step is to subtract the 2 from both sides.

It should look like this:

y = 1/2x -1

Graph it by first plotting the y-intercept, -1, on the y-axis, and counting up 1 space and to the right 2 spaces, then drawing a line. I hope this helped!
