Please help out with Functions? Will fan and medal!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of these functions has the greatest y-intercept?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

To find y - intercept set x = 0 and solve for y, for the graph it's where the function crosses the y - axis.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What about for h(x)?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

y=mx+b, b is the y - intercept here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay.. let's see..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

One moment..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[f(x)=4x+5\] \[0=4(0)+5.\] \[y=9\]

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

??

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Set x = 0 and solve for y, y = 4(0)+5 -> y=5 or just read from y = mx+b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah! You're right, my mistake... I added 4 to the 0. 4(0) = 0. So yes, y = 5...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now I do the same for h(x)?

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

|dw:1440381548492:dw| you could but this question seems to be made for eyeballing it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh wow....

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

By the way is this for a test?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, it's from the lesson's practice questions. It gives you the answer but I wanted to do it on my own

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Ok nice :) sorry I helped someone recently who was doing a test and it was sort of similar

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh I see... but thank you for the help

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Yw

OpenStudy (anonymous):

All those medals

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Haha
