Question

How do you graph y=1x+3

Answer 1

Start on (0,3) since the y-intercept is 3. Move 1 unit up, 1 unit to the right. Then 1 unit down, one unit left....

Answer 2

When you are graphing, you need to remember that mx is the slope, and b is the y intercept. Since the y intercept is 3, you place your first point at (0,3). Now since the slop is positive one, you will go right 1, up one and place a point, and then right 1, up one and place a point and so on. You can also extend the line farther down by going left 1, down 1, etc.
