Q. The equation y=2x2−7x+1 is graphed in the xy-plane. What is the y-intercept of the graph?Choose 1 answer:(A) −1(B) 1(C) 2(D) 7
Identify y-intercept: Identify the y-intercept on the graph of the equation.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-intercept.y=2(0)2−7(0)+1y=0−0+1y=1
Verify calculation: Verify the calculation for any mathematical errors.The calculation is straightforward with no operations other than substitution and basic arithmetic, so there is no math error.
