Answer: OPTION D .
Step-by-step explanation:
1. By definition the function cut or intersects the y-axis when the value of x is equal 0 (x=0).
2. Therefore, you can observe the table given in the problem and see the value of y when x is equal to zero.
3. Keeping this on mind you can see that when x=0, y=8.
Therefore, you can conclude that the y-intercept in the table is 8.
4. As you can see in the graph, the y-intercept is at 5.
5. Then, since 5<8, the answer is the option D
