Question

Which function has a greater y intercept

Answer 1

Answer:
`f(x) = (1)/(3) x+(1)/(2)` has a greater y-intercept.

Explanation:

1. We find out the y-intercept for each equation.

Equation 1, we know the slope-interest form is written as:

y = mx + b,

where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

Therefore, we know the y-intercept for equation 1 is
`(1)/(2)`.

Equation 2, by looking at the graph, we know the y-intercept is 0 because the y-intercept means the point where a graph crosses the y-axis.

`(1)/(2)` > 0

Therefore,
`f(x) = (1)/(3) x+(1)/(2)` has a greater y-intercept.
