How can you graph y=2X +0.5 and y=0.5+1?
Thank you

I meant y=0.5x+1
In general, the line
y=ax+b
is in the slope intercept form, meaning that a=slope of the line, and b=y-intercept.
For example,
y=x+2
will have a line that has y-intercept =2 (i.e. the point (0,2)) and a slope of 1.
So graph a point at (0,2), and draw the remaining line passing through (0,2) with a slope of 1.
