$y = -1/2x + 0 " (the +0 can be left out)"$

This just involves a direct substitution of the given values into the standard form $y = mx + c$

In this, $m$ is the slope and $c$ is the y-intercept.

So for m = $-1/2 and c= 0$

$y = -1/2x +0$

What is the slope intercept form of the line with a slope of -1/2 -1/2 and y-intercept of 0 0 ?
