Answer:

The y-intercept of the function is (0, -2)

Explanations:

Given the function


f(x)=(2x+4)/(x-2)

The y-intercept of a function or graph is the point where the line or curve cuts the y axis or the point where x = 0.

Substitute x = 0 into the function to have:


\begin{gathered} f(0)=(2(0)+4)/(0-2) \\ f(0)=(4)/(-2) \\ f(0)=-2 \end{gathered}

Hence the y-intercept of the function is (0, -2)
