The y-intercept of the linear function is y = 0.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

The y-intercept is given by (0,a) = (0,-a). From this, we have that for it to be a function, a = -a, and the only value that respects this condition is a = 0, hence the y-intercept of the linear function is y = 0.

Find the value of x in the triangle shown below.
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

{8}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  +  { 3}^{2}  \\  {x}^{2}  =  {8}^{2}  -  {3}^{2}  \\  {x}^{2}  = 64 - 9 \\ x =  \sqrt{55}  = 7.416

Which gives the best estimate and the exact product of (5.9)(8.28)? A: estimate: 40; exact product: 48.852
Evgesh-ka [11]
I think B gives the best estimate and exact product because

1). 5.9 x 8.28 is very similar to 6 x 8 which equals 48.

and 

2. 5.9 x 8.28 = 48.852.

Hopefully that made sense. :)
