Quick Question?

OpenStudy (help!!!!):

The graph of the linear function f has slope -2 and intersects the n-axis at n=6. Find an equation for f(n).

OpenStudy (help!!!!):

So the options for the intercepts are 6,0 and 0,6. Why is it the 6,0 the intercept?

satellite73 (satellite73):

cause it says it intersects the "n-axis" at 6, and it is a function of n

OpenStudy (help!!!!):

function of x? Why not f(x)=6 ----> y=6?

satellite73 (satellite73):

is is NOT the y intercept, which is \((0,12)\)

satellite73 (satellite73):

they wrote is "function of n" who are we to argue?

OpenStudy (help!!!!):

gotcha. THanks for the clarification!
