Question

What is the y-intercept of the graph of y = 2.5x? a. 2.5 c. 0 b. 1 d. -1

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

To find the x-intercept, substitute in

0 for y and solve for x

To find the y-intercept, substitute in 0 for x and solve for y

x-intercept(s): None

y-intercept(s): (0,1)

Answer 2

answer is C

Explanation:

General equation of a line is expressed as shown:

y = mx+c where;

m is the slope or gradient of the line

c is the intercept of the line

Given the equation of the line graph as y =2.5x

Comparing the given equation with the general equation, it is seen that m = 2.5 and c = 0 (since there is no value for the intercept)

Based on the explanation, the y-intercept of the graph is therefore 0
