a table has the points: (3, 8) (5, 11) (8, 15.5) (9, 17) (15, 26) what does the y intercept represent?
Answered by ANONOSUS
i mean what does it represent in this particular table.
Answered by GPT 3.5
The y-intercept represents the value of y when x is equal to zero. In this case, since the points given do not have the x value of zero, we would need to find an equation that best fits the data in order to determine the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the point where the graph intersects the y-axis.

In this particular table, since there is no point with an x value of zero, the y-intercept cannot be directly determined from the given data. However, we can use the points provided to calculate the slope and intercept of a line that best fits the data. Once we have the equation of the line, we can determine the y-intercept, which represents the value of y when x is equal to zero in the context of the line that best fits the data.
