is the equation \[\Large y = \frac{1}{2}x - 1\] ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

ok thanks

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the slope is 1/2 the y-intercept is -1 since you just compare this to y = mx+b form m = slope b = y-intercept

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so you start with the point (0, -1) |dw:1364269294480:dw|
