Q. Graph this line using the slope and y-intercept:y=x+1Click to select points on the graph.
Identify y-intercept: Identify the y-intercept from the equation y=x+1. The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0, which is 1.
Plot y-intercept: Plot the y-intercept on the graph at the point (0,1).
Determine slope: Determine the slope from the equation y=x+1. The slope (m) is the coefficient of x, which is 1 or 11. This means rise over run is 11.
Find another point: From the y-intercept (0,1), use the slope to find another point. Go up 1 unit (rise) and right 1 unit (run) to reach the point (1,2).
Plot second point: Plot the second point (1,2) on the graph.
Draw straight line: Draw a straight line through the two points to graph the line y=x+1.
