Question

the graph of a linear equation is shown below. which point represents the y - intercept for the equation? choose the correct point by clicking the appropriate circle on the graph below.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of y - intercept

The y - intercept of a linear equation is the point where the line crosses the y - axis. At this point, the x - coordinate is \(x = 0\).

Step2: Identify the point on the graph

Looking at the graph, we need to find the point with \(x=0\).

Answer:

The point with \(x = 0\) (the y - intercept) is the middle - left circle (the one on the y - axis).
