actually, the slope is 2 and the y-intercept is 1. This goes by the rule y=mx+b M=2 B=1 You put the slope where the m is and the y intercept where the b is.
The slope of the equation y = 2 x + 1 is 2, and the y-intercept is 1. This means that for every increase of 1 in x , y increases by 2. The line crosses the y-axis at y = 1 .
