The y-intercept is found when the x-coordinate is equal to zero, so if you plug 0 into the x-variable of the equation, you can find the intercept.

y = x - 3 Plug in 0 for x
y = 0 - 3 Subtract
y = -3 So when x = 0, then y will equal -3. This means that the y intercept of the equation will be C. (0, -3).

The y intercept is the value of y when x is equal to 0, so just set x=0 and find y!

y = 0-3
y=-3

The answer is C: (0,-3)

I hope this helped! ^-^

Answer:

about 37.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

If the outside wheels are turning twice as fast, they go twice the distance in the same time. The distance they travel is proportional to the radius of the circle, so the outside circle must have twice the radius of the inside circle.

Adding 6 ft to the radius of the inside circle doubles the radius, so the inside circle's radius must be 6 feet. Then the circumference of the inside circle is ...

C = 2πr = 2π(6 ft) = 12π ft ≈ 37.7 ft
