y-intercept is your `starting value`.
How much do you start with in each equation?
Start at x=0, and find out how much your starting amounts are for each equation.

good good good.
He's losing some donuts as he moves along, but he `starts with 24 donuts`.

zepdrix · Answer

How bout the h(x) equation?
How much do you start with, when x=0?

Good.
And then graphically, the starting point is where x=0, it's the y-axis.|dw:1436140149632:dw|
