Q. Find the y-coordinate of the y-intercept of the polynomial function defined below.f(x)=8x+5−2x2Answer:
Identify y-intercept: To find the y-coordinate of the y-intercept of the function f(x)=8x+5−2x2, we need to evaluate f(x) when x=0, because the y-intercept occurs where the graph of the function crosses the y-axis, and the x-coordinate is always 0 at the y-axis.Calculation: f(0)=8(0)+5−2(0)2=0+5−0=5
