Answer:

y = -1/2 x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression in point-slope form is expressed as;

y-y0 = m(x-x0)

(x0,y0) = (6, -4)

slope m = -1/2

Substitute into the formula

y-(-4) = -1/2(x-6)

y+4 = -1/2(x-6)

2(y+4) = -(x-6)

2y+8 = -x+6

2y = -x+6-8

2y = -x-2

y = -1/2 x -2/2

y = -1/2 x - 1

Hence the answer in slope-intercept form is y = -1/2 x - 1
