y + 2 = negative one-half(x – 4)
y + 2 = Image with alt text: negative one-half ( x – 4)

y + 2 = ( negative one-half ) x – 4
y + 2 = ( Image with alt text: negative one-half ) x – 4

y + 2 = negative one-half(x + 4)
y + 2 = Image with alt text: negative one-half ( x + 4)

y – 2 = negative one-half(x – 4)

The correct equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point (–4, –2) with a slope of negative one-half is:

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