Math Problem Statement
Identify the y-intercept
Solution
The graph you've provided shows a function, and the task is to identify the y-intercept.
Y-Intercept Explanation:
- The y-intercept of a function is the point where the graph crosses the y-axis. This occurs when .
Identifying the Y-Intercept:
- On the graph, look at the point where the curve intersects the y-axis (the vertical line at ).
- From the image, the curve crosses the y-axis at approximately .
Conclusion:
The y-intercept is .
