Answer:

Answer is linked

Explanation:

The equation is in slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b.

To graph the line, first we have to find the slope, m, and the y- intercept, b.

So, the slope is 2 and the y- intercept is 1.

We can graph this, beginning with the y- intercept, 1. The y- intercept is always on the y axis, so the (x) value will always be zero.

Plot a point at (0, 1).

Next, add more points using the slope. The slope is 2, or
image. Start at the point we have made on the y axis. The slope equals the
image. We can rise 2 units, then run one more unit to the right. If the slope is negative, the run goes to the left. However, in this case, the slope is positive, to it slants to the right.

We end on point (1, 3). We can continue this path infinitely, some other points on the graph could be (2, 5), (3, 7), (4, 9) and (5, 11).

Connect these points to make a line.

The finished line is linked below as well.

I hope this helps :] Good luck ^^
