y=1.50x + 4 is in red and y = x+5 is in blue

Explanation:

To graph y = 1.50x + 4 :

• 4 is your y-intercept, which is the point on the graph where the line intersects.

• 1.50x is your slope, it can be shown as rise / run ( 1.50 / 1 x). You would go up 1.50 from your y-intercept, and right 1 since it is increasing.

To graph y = x + 5 :

• 5 is your y-intercept
• x is your slope, it can be show as rise / run (1 / 1 x) . You would go up and right one.
