Please help... The image shows the linear graph for a family that hired a babysitter for a day. The family gave the babysitter some money up front to buy herself some lunch, and then paid her a constant hourly rate for the hours she worked. Click the thumbnail image to see the full size image.

Which 2 of the following statements are TRUE about the Y-INTERCEPT of this line? Select the TWO statements that are accurate.

A.
The y-intercept is 0.

B.
The y-intercept is 10.

C.
The y-intercept tells me that they paid the babysitter $20 to buy her lunch.

D.
The y-intercept tells me that they paid the babysitter $10 to buy her lunch.

The y-intercept, which represents the point the graph crosses the y-axis, is the point where x = 0, or the usual start of a time based function

The true statements about the y-intercept are;

B. The y-intercept is 10

D. The y-intercept tells me that they paid the babysitter $10 to buy her lunch

Reasons:

The points on the graph are;

The slope of the graph is therefore;

The equation of the graph is y - 60 = 10·(x - 5)

y = 10·x - 50 + 60 = 10·x + 10

The y-intercept is give by the point where the x-value is zero

At the start when x = 0, the amount paid to the baby sitter is y = 10×0 + 10 = 10

Therefore, the y-intercept which is $10, represent the amount the family

paid to the babysitter at the start for her lunch

The correct statements are therefore;

Option B; The y-intercept = 10

Option D; The y-intercept indicates the amount given to the babysitter for

her lunch
