Graph the equation by plotting ordered pairs of numbers.
2x = y+1


Start by picking a number(prefferably low) for x.


I'll pick 2. Now, I plug that into my equation:



After I solve the equation, I get:



So, that gives me an ordered pair of:
(2,3)


Repeat this process, and that will give you another ordered pair. Plot both of them, and then you can draw your line.
