Question

BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT ANSWER

Answer 1

Answer:

C. When initially counted, the flower population was 200.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph, which represents the population of a particular species of flower in a forest has changed over time. We are asked to choose the correct option about the y-intercept.

Since we know that y-intercept represents the initial value as y-intercept is the point, where line crosses y-axis. We know that at x equals 0 the line of function crosses y-axis.

We can see from our given graph that our the function crosses y-axis at 200. This means at time equals 0, the initial population of flower species in forest was 200 flowers, therefore, option C is the correct choice.

Answer 2

C) When initially counted, the flower population was 200.

If you look at zero on the x- intercept and you go all the way up to the top of the line, you will reach 200 which means that this was the initial amount of flowers. 
I hope this helps! :)
