What is the y-intercept of the graph of the function y=-2(x+2)^2+4?
Please and thanks!
When x is zero, y= -2(4) + 4 or -4
Thank you.
To find the y-intercept of the graph of the function y = -2(x + 2)^2 + 4, you need to determine the value of y when x is zero.
Plug in x = 0 into the function:
y = -2(0 + 2)^2 + 4
= -2(2)^2 + 4
= -2(4) + 4
= -8 + 4
= -4
Therefore, when x is zero, y equals -4. This means the y-intercept of the graph is at the point (0, -4).
