"How do you graph this line, using the slope-intercept form +2y=1%2F2x-10+
That's not a linear equation, so you can't do that.
-----------
If you meant:
+2y=x%2F2-10+ then
y = x/4 - 5
Slope m = 1/4, y-intercept b = -5
Plot the point (0,-5)
Count 4 units to the right and one up to point (4,-4) and plot that point.
Draw a line thru them.

2y=1/2x - 10
y=1/4x - 5 Slope-intercept form.
Make a table of x and y values.
