Question

Select the statements that are true about the graph.

The y-intercept of the graph is (0, -8).
The vertex is located at (-1,-9)
The graph has y-intercepts at (-4.0) and (2.0).
The graph has a minimum.
The graph has zeros of -4 and 2.
The solution of the quadratic function represented by the graph is (-1,-9).
The graph has a maximum.

Answer 1

Answer:It's called the "y intercept" and it's the y value of the point where the line intersects the y- axis. For this line, the y-intercept is "negative 1." You can find the y-intercept by looking at the graph and seeing which point crosses the y axis. This point will always have an x coordinate of zero.

Explanation:

The Y intercept of a straight line is simply where the line crosses the Y axis.

Example

Y intercept

In the above diagram the line crosses the Y axis at 1.

The Y intercept is equal to 1 and the point is written as (0,1). Notice that for the y-intercept the x-coordinate of the point is always zero..
