After carefully looking over my notes and gathering all my knowledge of college mathematics, I can honestly say that I have no idea what the answer is.
x intercept (-1, 0)
y intercept (0, -3)
The 4th option
Coordinates are always written like (x,y) And the x-intercept always has a y coordinate of 0, while the y-intercept always has a x coordinate of 0.
Sure thing!
So if we look at the function, it is an exponential, meaning that it is a number to the power of x
The graph can be described by the equation
y = a^x
If we look at the graph, one of the points on the line is (2, 16), the x value is 2 and the y value is 16
If we consider this along with the function for the graph, we can say that
16 = a^2
Just solve this for a and you’ll have your answer :)
What do you need help with
Answer:
Select one of the two bottom statements which both read "To find the y-intercept, begin at the origin and move vertically to the graphed line. To find the slope, use two ordered pairs on the line and substitute into the equation ."
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept of a function is the point where the graph intersects the y-axis. Since the y-axis is the vertical line through the origin, we can start at the origin (0,0) and move up or down to where the line crosses the axis. This (0,y) point is the y-intercept. It is always (0,y) because it is located on the y-axis where x=0.
The slope of a function of a function is the rise/run or rate of change of the function. It can be seen on the graph of a line between any two coordinate pairs of the line. We know it as the variable m in linear function equations. To find it using an equation, we chose the point-slope form y
. We substitute two coordinate pairs from the line for
to find the missing value m or slope of the line.
