Which function below has the lowest y intercept?f(x)graph going through (0, 2) and (4, 0)g(x)Al had two dozen donuts when he walked into the office, but every cubicle he passed, he lost 2 donuts.h(x)h(x) = 6x + 1Answers: f(x) g(x) h(x) The functions all have the same y intercept.
Accepted Solution
A:
Answer: h(x) has the lowest y intercept The answer is choice C
--------------------------------------
Explanation:
f(x) has the y intercept 2 since the point (0,2) is on the f(x) curve. This is where the curve goes through the y axis
g(x) has the y intercept 24. This is the initial number of donuts he starts with (1 dozen = 12; 2 dozen = 2*12 = 24)
h(x) has the y intercept 1 The equation y = 6x+1 is in the form y = mx+b where b = 1 is the y intercept Alternatively, plug in x = 0 and it leads to y = 1
