Can you show me how to graph y equals 4x-1?

Answer 1

5

Answer 2

the equation is y = 4x - 1
the coefficient of x (the number next to x, which in this case is 4) is always the slope. the last number is the y intercept, which in this case would be -1. so you would go down to (0,-1) which would be the y intercept. so you'd put a point there.
for the slope, 4 basically means it goes up four times for every one time that it goes to the right side. so you'd go to the side once and up four times, and your second point would be at (1,3)

hope this helped!
