Verifying Business Cost Models

A small business owner uses the linear equation y=2x+1y = 2x + 1 to model the daily operating cost of a delivery service. When verifying the graph of this model, the owner identifies that the line crosses the vertical y-axis at the point (0,1)(0, 1). Based on the standard verification process for the equation y=2x+1y = 2x + 1, which specific numerical value in the equation must the owner check to ensure it matches the y-coordinate of this intercept?
