Answer:

62

Explanation:

If you plug x = 0 into the equation you get the y-intercept.

y = 2(x-5)^2+12

y = 2(0-5)^2+12

y = 2(-5)^2+12

y = 2(25)+12

y = 50+12

y = 62

Answer:

62

Explanation:

f(x) =2(x-5)^2+12

To find the y intercept, set x=0 and solve for y

f(x) =2(0-5)^2+12

= 2(25) +12

= 50+12

= 62
