You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I am going to show you the intercept method of graphing a line this time since you didn't specify which method.
y=x+1
Let x=0 and solve for y.
y=0+1
y=1
Plot (0,1) This is the y-intercept (the place where the line crosses the y axis).
Let y=0 and solve for x.
0=x+1
-1+0=x+1-1
-1=x
Plot (-1,0) This is the x-intercept (the place where the line crosses the x axis).
Connect the dots and you have a line that should look like this:

Happy Calculating!!!
