To determine the value of the constant term \(c\) in the standard form of the quadratic function \(y = ax^2 + bx + c\), we need to find the value of \(y\) when \(x = 0\). This is because the constant term \(c\) represents the value of the function at \(x = 0\).

Unfortunately, without being able to see the specific graph you mentioned, I can't directly identify the value of \(c\). If you can provide the y-coordinate of the point where the parabola intersects the y-axis (where \(x = 0\)), that will give us the value of \(c\).

Once you have that y-coordinate from the graph, you can conclude that:

The value of \(c\) is equal to that y-coordinate.

If you can provide further details from the graph, I can assist you more accurately!
