Find the
y
intercepts
for the parabola whose equation is given. If the
y
intercepts
are irrational, round your answers to the nearest tenth.
y=-x2+5x-6
(0, -2)
(0, 2)
(0, -6)
(0, 6)
To find the y-intercepts of a parabola, we substitute x = 0 into the equation and solve for y.
Substituting x = 0 into the equation y = -x^2 + 5x - 6, we get:
y = -0^2 + 5(0) - 6
y = 0 + 0 - 6
y = -6
So, the y-intercept is (0, -6).
Therefore, the correct option is (0, -6).
