How do you graph y-x=-1
You just need 2 points to graph a line.

Substitute 0 for y and solve for x to get the x-intercept. You should get the point: (x, 0).

Substitute 0 for x and solve for y to get the y-intercept. You should get the point: (0, y).

Now that you have 2 points which are the 2 intercepts, join/connect them. You now have the graph of the linear equation: y - x = - 1.

It's that simple...nothing COMPLEX!!
