Final answer:
For a given function, x-intercept is found by setting y to zero and y-intercept by setting x to zero. The x-intercept of the function is 2/3 and the y-intercept is -2(option A).
Step-by-step explanation:
The intercepts of a function are the points where the graph of the function crosses the x-axis (x-intercept) or the y-axis (y-intercept).
To find the x-intercept, we set the concentration of sugar to 1/15 and solve for n. This means that the equation for the function would be:
sugar = (1/15)
The x-intercept is the value of n when the sugar concentration is 0. So we substitute 0 for sugar in the equation and solve for n.
To find the y-intercept, we set n to 0 and solve for sugar. This means the equation for the function would be:
sugar = (1/15)
The y-intercept is the value of sugar when n is 0. So we substitute 0 for n in the equation and solve for sugar.
A) x-intercept: 2/3, y-intercept: -2
