  1. Copy and complete the following table of values of \(x\) and \(y\) for the equation \(y=\frac12x-2\).[1]
    \(x\)\(-4\)\(0\)\(4\)
    \(y\)
  2. On the grid provided below, using the numbered axis scales, draw the graph of \(y=\frac12x-2\) for \(-8\leq x\leq4\).[2]
  3. On the same axes, draw and label the graph of \(y=x+1\).[2]
  4. Hence, find the coordinates of the point of intersection of the two graphs and explain the significance of this point.[2]
