Modded SAT Question Bank by Abdullah Mallik

  • Moving from left to right:
    • The curve passes from quadrant 3 to quadrant 4.
    • In quadrant 3, the curve trends up sharply to point (0 comma negative 5).
    • In quadrant 4, the curve trends up gradually.
  • As x increases, the curve approaches the line y equals negative 4.
  • The curve passes through the following points:
    • (negative 1 comma negative 9)
    • (0 comma negative 5)
    • (1 comma negative 4.2)

What is the y-intercept of the graph shown?

  1. -1,-9

  2. 0,-5

  3. 0,-4

  4. 0,0

Correct Answer: B
Rationale

Choice B is correct. The y-intercept of a graph in the xy-plane is the point x,y on the graph where x=0. At x=0, the corresponding value of y is -5. Therefore, the y-intercept of the graph shown is 0,-5.

Choice A is incorrect and may result from conceptual errors.

Choice C is incorrect. This is the y-intercept of a graph in the xy-plane that intersects the y-axis at y=-4, not y=-5.

Choice D is incorrect. This is the y-intercept of a graph in the xy-plane that intersects the y-axis at y=0, not y=-5.
