$y=2 x+1$

Step 1 ：Given the equation \(y=2x+1\).

Step 2 ：This is a simple linear equation where the slope of the line is 2 and the y-intercept is 1.

Step 3 ：We can plot this equation on a graph.

Step 4 ：Final Answer: \(\boxed{\text{The plot of the equation } y=2x+1 \text{ is a straight line with a slope of 2 and y-intercept of 1. The line extends from negative infinity to positive infinity along both the x and y axes.}}\)
