What graph best represents y=2^x + 1

Answer:
The graph that best represents the given equation in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
[tex]y=2^x+1[/tex]
Find the y-intercept
Remember that the y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero
For x=0
substitute
[tex]y=2^0+1=2[/tex]
The y-intercept is the point (0,2)
The given function is increasing, because the y-value increases as the x-value increases. The function tends to go up as it goes along
therefore
The graph that best represents the given equation in the attached figure
