14. Determine the y-intercept of the quadratic function f(x) = x^2+ 8x - 13 please give detailed steps/walkthrough!! thank you

When we talk about Intercept... We refer to the place where the line touches or Crosses a Mentioned axis.

In this question... We needed the y - Intercept

Know This: At the intercept of a mentioned axis...The other axis is zero at that point.

In other words... If we're asked for intercept at x-axis ... The y value at that point is zero and Vice Versa

So To find the y Intercept... the x value at this point is zero(0).

With this in Mind...

substitute x = 0 into the quadratic eqn

f(x) = 0² +8(0) - 13

f(x) = -13

This is Our Y Intercept .

To get the x intercept(if asked)

substitute y = 0 and solve

0 = x² + 8x - 13

This is a quadratic equation

Solving this would get you two value and those values would be your x intercept.

I hope it helps.

Have a great day.
