The equation y = x + 8 uses the slope intercept form
Remember that the slope intercept formula is:
y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
In this case
y = 1x + 8
m = 1
y = x + 8
b = 8 OR y-intercept of this line is (0, 8)
You can plot the point (0, 8) on a graph. Then to find the next point you will rise up 1 and over right 1 (this is the slope). You can find another point after that by going down one and left one from the point (0, 8)
The graph should look like the one in the image below
Hope this helped! Let me know if you have any further questions
