The given slope is -1/2.

The given point is (4,6).

We have to use the point-slope formula to find the equation.

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Replacing the given information, we have.

[tex]\begin{gathered} y-6=-\frac{1}{2}(x-4) \\ y-6=-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{4}{2} \\ y-6=-\frac{1}{2}x+2 \\ y=-\frac{1}{2}x+2+6 \\ y=-\frac{1}{2}x+8 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the equation is

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x+8[/tex]
