A straight line with slope of $\frac{1}{2}$ $1/2$ and y-intercept of $2$ $2$

The equation of a straight line with slope $(m)$ $(m)$ and y-intercept $(c)$ $(c)$ form is:

$y = m x + c$ $y=mx+c$

In this example: $y = \frac{1}{2} x + 2$ $y=1/2x+2$

So, $m = \frac{1}{2}$ $m=1/2$ and $c = 2$ $c=2$

Thus the graph of $y$ $y$ is a straight line with slope of $\frac{1}{2}$ $1/2$ and y-intercept of $2$ $2$ as below.
