Set a value for x and then find the corresponding value for y.

Explanation:

Set a value for #x\# and then find the corresponding value for y using the line equation y= x+2
The values of x are selected randomly.

x= 1-> y=3 \ the coordinates of the first point are \ (1,3)
x= 5-> y=7\ the coordinates of the second point are \ (5,7)

Trace the line that passes through the two points (1,3) and (5,7)

graph{1*x+2 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
