If a linear relation is described by the equation was C = 35 - 5D, then the vertical intercept of the graph (where C is on the vertical axis) is:
A) 35
B) -5
C) 30
D) Not known

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The vertical intercept of the graph is where the value of D is zero, meaning there is no input for D yet. Substituting D=0 in the equation, we get C=35-5(0)=35. Therefore, the vertical intercept of the graph is at C=35.
