Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex], thus

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 6, 2) into the partial equation

2 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 3 = - 1

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x - 1 → B
