Question

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

Accepted Answer

Choice D is correct. The y -intercept of a graph is the point where the graph intersects the y -axis. The graph of function f shown intersects the y -axis at the point 0 , 8 . Therefore, the y -intercept of the graph of f is ( 0 , 8 ) . Choice A is incorrect. This is the point where the x -axis, not the graph of f , intersects the y -axis. Choice B is incorrect and may result from conceptual or calculation errors. Choice C is incorrect and may result from conceptual or calculation errors.
