Q. Find the yy-intercept of the parabola y=x2+x354y = x^2 + x - \frac{35}{4}. \newlineSimplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.\newline_____
  1. Evaluate y-intercept: To find the y-intercept of the parabola, we need to evaluate the equation y=x2+x354y = x^2 + x - \frac{35}{4} at x=0x = 0, because the y-intercept occurs where the graph of the parabola crosses the y-axis, and the x-coordinate is always 00 at the y-axis.\newlineCalculation: y=(0)2+(0)354=354y = (0)^2 + (0) - \frac{35}{4} = -\frac{35}{4}
