Which function has a y-intercept at (0,3)?
I agree there was probably supposed to be a group of graphs or list of equations to choose from.
In the absence of this, here's a small list of functions that have a y-intercept at (0,3).
Linear: f(x) = mx + 3, for any slope m
Quadratic: f(x) = ax2 + bx + 3, for any coefficients a and b
nth order Polynomial: f(x) = anxn + an-1xn-1 + ... + a1x + 3, for any coefficients a1–an
Square root: f(x) = √x + 3
Trig function: f(x) = sin(x) + 3, f(x) = cos(x) + 2, or f(x) = 3cos(x)
Exponential: f(x) = ex + 2 or f(x) = bx + 2 for any b ≠ 0
Natural Logarithm: f(x) = ln(x +1) + 3

If there are supposed to be graphs pictured, then it is the graph that crosses the vertical (y) axis at y = 3 (as mentioned above).
I cannot see the functions in this problem, but I can tell you that when you put 0 in for x and solve for y, if you get y = 3 for an answer, then yes, it has a y-intercept of (0,3). Otherwise, no.
