Question

Which statement correctly describes the graph of y = x + 7?

Answer 1

see the explanation

The graph in the attached figure

Explanation:

we have

`y=x+7`

This is the equation of a line in slope intercept form

`y=mx+b`

`m=1\\b=7`

therefore

The slope is positive

The y-intercept is the point (0,7)---> (value of x when the value of y is equal to zero)

The x-intercept is the point (-7,0) ---> (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

To graph the line plot the intercepts and join the points
