Question

Using point-slope form, write the equation of the line that passes through the point (-1/2,1/2)

Answer 1

Wasn't the slope of the line given?

The point-slope form of the equation of a straight line is \[y-y _{0}=m(x-x _{0})\]

Answer 2

You have one point: (-1/2,1/2), but not the slope. If that's the case, substitute the coordinates of the given point into this point-slope form, but leave the letter m to represent the slope.
