the x-intercept is the point where the line touches the x-axis. The x-intercept is (4,0)
the y-intercept is the point where the line touches the y-axis. The y-intercept is (0,-2)
Y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -1/2
(-4,-2)...x1 = -4 and y1 = -2
now we sub
y - (-2) = -1/2(x - (-4) =
y + 2 = -1/2(x + 4) <=====
