Answer:
y = -x/2 + 1/2 or
y = -1/2 x + 1/2
(these are equivalent)
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
So we have to get the y all by itself on the left.
2y + x = 1
Subtract x from both sides.
2y = 1 - x
Divide both sides by 2. Divide all the terms by 2.
2y/2 = 1/2 - x/2
Simplify.
y = 1/2 - x/2
Rearrange the terms on the right side so that the x term is first and the constant is last.
y = -x/2 + 1/2
I think this is a good, reasonable and correct answer. But maybe you really want to see that m number (the slope) out in front of the x. Then you can write is as:
y = -1/2 x + 1/2
