which function has the greatest y-intercept? f(x) g(x) h(x) All three functions have the same y-intercept

did u try Google?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, no one posted this question. but im gonna try googling how to find the y intercept im not sure if its the same formula for the slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okayy

@AlexandervonHumboldt2 do you think you could walk me through this? the lesson doesn't exactly give me a formula on finding the y intercept

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

hint: we have: \[2 \leqslant h\left( x \right) \leqslant 6\] since: \[ - 1 \leqslant \cos \theta \leqslant 1\]

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

the y-intercept is where grath interesect y asis .in first grath it intersects at -5. in second grath it interecsects at -3. third grath intersects at 4.

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

4 is the biggest thus third garth has the biggest.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

we have to compute these values: \[\begin{gathered} h\left( 0 \right) = ...? \hfill \\ g\left( 0 \right) = ...? \hfill \\ f\left( 0 \right) = ...? \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats a garth? @AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

sorry grath

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you mean graph right? lol sorry just trying to make sure if i didnt miss a term in the lesson @AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok did i do these right? the y-intercepts for: f(x)=-5 h(x)=2 g(x)=-3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

f(x)=-5 h(x)=4 g(x)=-3 are your intercepts thus h(x) has the biggest

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you get 4 for the y intercept of h(x) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

the last coeeficent in this equation is y-intercept

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but h(x) is the table graph @AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

yes it is: listen: the last coeeficent that is without any x is the y-intercept.

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

LAST COEEFICENT IS Y_INTERCEPT FOR H(X)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhh now i see it sorry i was confusing it with another question im working on @AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but when i graph the function it tells me that the y intercept is 2 :( @AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

woops i forgot it is a trig function so yeah it would be 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, the highest y-intercept would be h(x)=2 ? am i right? @AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@AlexandervonHumboldt2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Michele_Laino

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you !~

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i was gonna do that lol

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

ok thx
