Question

A linear function h(x) is represented by the equation 4x - 2y = 4 . What is the y-intercept of the function? Write the solution as an ordered pair.

Answer 1

4x-2y = 4

= -2y = 4-4x

= y = (4x + 4)/ 2

y = 2x - 2

h(x) = 2x-2

To find y-intercept, find h(0)

= 2(0) - 2 => -2

Y-intercept = (0,-2)
