Answer:

y-intercept = -9

Explanation:

  • For any y-intercept, the x-coordinate is always 0 since the function is intersecting the y-axis.

This means we can find the y-intercept of the equation by plugging in 0 for x and simplifying:

y = 6(0 - 1/2)(0 + 3)

y = 6(-1/2)(3)

y = -3 * 3

y = -9

Thus, -9 is the y-intercept of y = 6(x - 1/2)(x + 3).
