Given of the equation .

Find the y-intercept, by comparing the equation with slope-intercept

form equation y = mx + b, where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

y-intercept is 1. So, line crosses the y-axis at .

Next find the slope.

Slope m = .

Graph the line using  point and slope.

1.      Draw a coordinate plane.

2.      Plot the point .

3.   Find the next point using . Start at (0,3), move up

2 units and right 1unit, then mark a dot and label it.

4.   Draw a line through these points.
