1. Identify the slope of the given line:
m = \frac{1}{2}

2. Use the point-slope form of a line equation,
y - y_1 = m(x - x_1), with the point (6, -2) and slope m = \frac{1}{2}.

3. Substitute the values into the point-slope form equation:
y - (-2) = \frac{1}{2}(x - 6)

4. Simplify the equation:
y + 2 = \frac{1}{2}x - 3

5. Solve for y to get the slope-intercept form:
y = \frac{1}{2}x - 3 - 2 \Rightarrow y = \frac{1}{2}x - 5

Answer:
y = \frac{1}{2}x - 5

A function is considered exponential when it has a base with positive values greater than zero and different from one, where the exponent is an unknown. An important characteristic of exponential functions is that they show rapid growth or decay as an independent variable increases or decreases.
