Find the indicated intercept(s) of the graph of the function.2133:2139
-$y$-intercept of $f ( x ) = \frac { x - 8 } { x ^ { 2 } + 15 x - 9 }$
A) $\left( 0 , - \frac { 9 } { 8 } \right)$
B) $\left( 0 , \frac { 8 } { 9 } \right)$
C) $( 0,8 )$
D) none

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The y-intercept is found by evaluating the function at $x = 0$. Substituting $x = 0$ into the function gives $f(0) = \frac{0 - 8}{0^2 + 15(0) - 9} = \frac{-8}{-9} = \frac{8}{9}$.
