You can put this solution on YOUR website!
For y=mx%2Bbform,
y is your y value
m is your slope
x is your x value
b is your Y-intercept
For y=-x%2B2
Your slope is -1 and Y-intercept is 2
graph%28300%2C200%2C-5%2C5%2C-5%2C5%2C-x%2B2%29
Your second equation, y=%281%2F2%29x-4
Your slope is 1%2F2 and Y-intercept is -4
graph%28300%2C200%2C-5%2C5%2C-5%2C5%2C%281%2F2%29x-4%29
Hope this helps!
