Q. If the equation y=2(1.5)x is graphed in the xy-plane, what are the coordinates of its y-intercept?Choose 1 answer:(A) (0,0)(B) (0,1.5)(C) (0,2)(D) (0,3)
Identify y-intercept: Identify the y-intercept of the graph.The y-intercept occurs where the graph crosses the y-axis, which is when x=0.
Substitute x=0: Substitute x=0 into the equation to find the y-coordinate of the y-intercept.y=2(1.5)(0)
Calculate y: Calculate the value of y when x=0.y=2(1) because any number raised to the power of 0 is 1.y=2×1y=2
Combine coordinates: Combine the value of x and y to get the coordinates of the y-intercept.The coordinates of the y-intercept are (0,y).Since y=2 when x=0, the coordinates are (0,2).
