"see explanation"

Explanation:

"one way is to find the intercepts, that is where the graph"
"crosses the x and y axes"

• " let x = 0, in the equation for y-intercept"

• " let y = 0, in the equation for x-intercept"

x=0rArry=0-1rArry=-1larrcolor(red)"y-intercept"

y=0rArrx-1=0rArrx=1larrcolor(red)"x-intercept"

"plot the points "(0,-1)" and "(1,0)

"draw a straight line through them for graph"
graph{(y-x+1)((x-0)^2+(y+1)^2-0.04)((x-1)^2+(y-0)^2-0.04)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
