The answer to your question is
Step-by-step explanation:
Process
1.- Get to points of the line
A (-2, 0)
B (0, -1)
2.- Find the slope of the line
Slope = m =
Substitution
m =
3.- Find the equation of the line
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Substitution
y - 0 = -1/2(x + 2)
Simplification
y = -1/2x - 1
You have to look for -3 on the x axis, and then proceed vertically (in this case upwards) until you meet the graph.
We land about 1/2 square above the 12 mark on the y axis. Since one square is 1/2 unit, a half square would be 1/4 unit.
So, we can estimate
