Answer:

The value of f(x) at x=6 is $f(6) = 218$

Therefore, the correct option is <u>D) 218</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the value of f(x) at x=6

Given step function is $f(x)=6x^{2}+2$ for the range of -6 < x < 9

( 6 is in this range)

Substitute the value x=6 in $f(x)=6x^{2}+2$ :

$f(x) = 6x^{2} + 2$

$f(6) = 6(6)^{2} + 2$

$f(6) = 6\times 36+ 2$

$f(6) = 216+ 2$

$f(6) = 218$

Hence, the value of f(x) at x=6 is $f(6) = 218$

Therefore, the correct option is <u>D) 218</u>

After trying to do it the hard way, i remembered the easy way.

substitution:

because x = 6 and 6 is in the range of -6 < x < 9, we only need the equation 6x^(2) + 2

f(x) = 6x^(2) + 2
f(6) = 6(6)^(2) + 2
f(6) = 6(36) + 2
f(6) = 216 + 2
f(6) = 218

How do you find the y-intercept?

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.

so to find that you can use y=mx+b, or you can use point slope form and that would be y-y1+m(x-x1)

remember m= slope b= y- intercept
