Answer:

y= 1/2x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is y= mx+c

m represents the slope of the line

c represents the y-intercept

So we plug in our information into the equation.

The slope is 1/2 so y= 1/2x + c

The line crosses at (0,-1) which makes -1 the y-intercept as the line crosses at this point on the y-axis.

Therefore, y= 1/2x-1
