The line equation in slope-intercept form is $\"\"$ , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

First find the y-intercept value.

$\"\"$ (Substitute -0.5 for m)

$\"\"$ (Substitute 2, -3 for x, y) $\"http://c4anything.com/userfiles/image/steps_images/step2.JPG\"$

$\"\"$ (Multiply: $\"\"$ )

$\"\"$ (Add 1 to each side)

$\"\"$ (Commutative property: a + b = b + a)

$\"\"$ (Additive inverse property: - 1 + 1 = 0)

$\"\"$ (Add: $\"\"$ ) $\"\"$

Substitute -0.5 for m and 2 for b in the Slope-intercept form equation.
