Question 252817: Which is an equation of a line that has a slope of -1/2 and contains the point (2, 3)?
f y = -(x/2) + 4
g y = 3x + 2
h y = 2x - (1/2)
j y = (x/2) + 3

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the only one with a slope of -1/2 is y=-(x/2)+4
check if 2,3 is on the line by plugging in 2,3 as x and y
3=-2/2+4
3=3
yes it is on the line and so is the answer
