Question

The graph of the linear function $f$ is shown. What is the y-intercept of the graph of $y = f (x)$ ?

Accepted Answer

Choice C is correct. The y -intercept of a graph is the point where the graph intersects the y -axis. The graph of y = f ( x ) shown intersects the y -axis at the point ( 0 , 2 ) . Therefore, the y -intercept of the graph of y = f ( x ) is ( 0 , 2 ) . Choice A is incorrect. This is the x -intercept, not the y -intercept, of the graph of y = f ( x ) . Choice B is incorrect and may result from conceptual or calculation errors. Choice D is incorrect and may result from conceptual or calculation errors.
