No written hint yet — check the trope: y-intercept, straight-line-graphs. Name the trap first, work the stem by hand, then open the solution below.

Show solution

Set

x = 0

y = 1

, so the

y

-intercept is

(0, 1)

and the correct is C. Trap:

(1, 0)

is the

x

-intercept, not the

y

-intercept.
