C
D
Explanation
Correct answer: B.
Choice B is correct. The y-intercept of the graph of a function in the xy-plane is the point on the graph where . It′s given that . Substituting for in this equation yields , or . Since it′s given that , it follows that when . Therefore, the y-intercept of the graph of in the xy-plane is .
Desmos solution:
Note: The y-intercept is where x = 0, so evaluating f(0) directly gives the y-coordinate.
