Answer:

[tex]\sf y=-\dfrac12x+2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

y-intercept is when x = 0, so (0, 2)

x-intercept is when y = 0, so (4, 0)

[tex]\sf slope=\dfrac{change\:in\:y}{change\:in\:x}=\dfrac{0-2}{4-0}=-\dfrac12[/tex]

Slope-intercept form of linear equation:  [tex]\sf y=mx+b[/tex]

(where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept)

Given:

  • [tex]\sf m=-\dfrac12[/tex]
  • b = 2

[tex]\sf \implies y=-\dfrac12x+2[/tex]
