in the xy - plane, what is the y - intercept of the graph of the equation y = 2(x + 3)(x -4)?

Question

A) - 24

B) -12

C) -2

D) 12

Answer 1

In searching for the y-intercept (the point where the line crosses the y-axis), the value of x is always 0. Therefore, plug 0 in for all values of x and solve for y.
