Answer:

The x intercept would be -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, get your numbers into slope intercept form, y = mx + b. This would be y = -1/2x - 2. Then, replace y for 0, which would be 0 = -1/2x - 2. Add 2 on both sides to get 2 = -1/2x. then, multiply each side by -2, you end up with -4 = x, which means -4 is your x intercept.
