Hi Lyn,
I've showed you the method of plotting points, the intercept method, and now I'm going to show you the slope-intercept method. Pick a method you like:
:
Graph the follwing and show me what the graph looks like.
y = x + 2
This is in slope intercept form: , m=slope=rise/run, and (0,b) is the y-intercept.
the y-intercept is (0,2) Plot (0,2)
From that point, use the slope:
, m=1/1 (if you don't see a coefficient of x), go up one, and right 1 and plot a second point at what should be (1,3).
Connect the points and you have this line:

Happy Calculating, Lyn!!!
