To find the y-intercept of the function \( y = 2x - 2 \), we set \( x = 0 \) and solve for \( y \):
\[
y = 2(0) - 2 = -2
\]
This means the y-intercept of the function \( y = 2x - 2 \) is \( -2 \).
Now, looking at the graph mentioned, it shows a line passing through the points \( (0, -2) \) and \( (2, 1) \). The point \( (0, -2) \) also represents the y-intercept of the line on the graph.
Therefore, we can complete the statement as follows:
The y-intercept of the function \( y = 2x - 2 \) is **the same as** the y-intercept of the function represented in the graph.
\[
y = 2(0) - 2 = -2
\]
This means the y-intercept of the function \( y = 2x - 2 \) is \( -2 \).
