Question

What is the y-intercept of the function, represented by the table of values below?

Answer 1

Answer:

C.2

Step-by-step explanation:

it is 2 because the y intercept is when it starts, and it starts at( 0,2)

Answer 2

Answer:  D.8

Step-by-step explanation:

y-intercept means the point of the line crosses the y-axis, where x = 0.

y = mx + b represent most linear equation, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Step 1: Find the slope of the line, choose two points: (-2,16) and (1,4).

slope = $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$ = $\frac{4-16}{1-(-2)}$ = $\frac{4-16}{1+2}$ = -12/3 = -4

Step 2: Solve b by choose one point to plug in. (1,4)

y = mx + b

4 = -4(1) + b  [Plug in the value of x, y, and slope]

4 = -4 + b     [Add 4 on both sides]

8 = b

Therefore, the y-intercept is D.8
