See a solution process below:

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is: y = color(red)(m)x + color(blue)(b)

Where color(red)(m) is the slope and color(blue)(b) is the y-intercept value.

Substituting the slope and y-intercept from the problem gives:

y = color(red)(1/2)x + color(blue)(3)
