Question

What is the initial value of the function represented by this graph? (5 points)

A coordinate grid is shown with x- and y axes labeled from 0 to 7 at increments of 1. A straight line joins the ordered pair 0, 3 with the ordered pair 7, 6.

1. 0

2. 3

3. 6

4. 7

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

2. 3

Explanation:

The "initial value" is the y-intercept. It is the value of y corresponding to an x-value of 0.

Your problem statement tells you that (0, 3) is one of the points on the line. That ordered pair tells you y=3 is the y-value that corresponds to x=0.

3 is the initial value
