The x-intercept for the function y=x+1 is (-1, 0) and y-intercept is (0,1).
The graph of a linear equation.
The graph of a linear equation takes the general formula y = mx + b. Here, the m is the slope of the linear equation, the b is the y-intercept.
Given that:
y = x + 1
- The slope = 1
- The y-intercept = 1
The x-intercept is the value of x for which y is equal to zero. So, if y = x + 1, we will set y to be equal to zero to solve for x.
0 = x + 1
x = -1
x intercept = (-1, 0)
The y-intercept is the value of y for which x is equal to zero.
y = x + 1
y = 0 + 1
y = 1
y-intercept = (0,1)
