The equation of a line in point-slope form is given by y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is the given point and m is the slope.
Plugging in the values, we have:
y - 6 = (-1/2)(x - 2)
Expanding and simplifying further:
y - 6 = (-1/2)x + 1
y = (-1/2)x + 7
Therefore, the equation of the line is y = (-1/2)x + 7.
What is the equation of the line that passes through the point left bracket, 2, comma, 6, right bracket(2,6) and has a slope of minus, one half−
