Answer

Please see the graph.

Work Step by Step

Let x = 0: $y + 3 = 1/2 * (x+2)$ $y + 3 = 1/2 * (0+2)$ $y + 3 = 1/2 * 2$ $y + 3 = 1$ $y + 3 - 3 = 1-3$ $y = -2$ Let y = 0: $y + 3 = 1/2 * (x+2)$ $0 + 3 = 1/2 * (x+2)$ $3 = 1/2 * (x+2)$ $3*2 = 2*1/2*(x+2)$ $6 = x + 2$ $6 -2 = x+2-2$ $4 = x$ We have the points (0,-2) and (4,0), so we can plot these points and then draw the line that connects both points.
