Weegy: First, create a slope-intercept equation. y= (-1/2)x + b
To find b, plug in (-2, -3)
-3 = (-1/2)(-2) + b
-3 = 1 + b
-4 = b
y= (-1/2)x - 4
Now convert to standard form, which means getting both x and y on the same side. [ So we can add (1/2)x to each side
(1/2)x + y = -4
multiply by two to get rid of the fraction
x + 2y = -8 ]
