Answer:

Function A

"Function A is 6 ... Function B is 2"

Explanation:

The "initial value" is the y value when x is 0. In other words, the output when the input is 0. In a slope-intercept form equation, this is also the b value or the y-intercept.

For function A, the initial value is 6 as shown by the point (0, 6)

For function B, the initial value is 2 as shown by the +2

Have a nice day!
