The y-intercept represents Response area.

Graph of a line on a coordinate plane. The horizontal x axis, labeled Distance (miles), ranges from 0 to 20 in increments of 1. The vertical y axis, labeled Cab fare (dollars), ranges from 0 to 20 in increments of 1. A line passes through the points begin ordered pair 0 comma 3 end ordered pair and begin ordered pair 6 comma 18 end ordered pair.

Answer 1

Based on the information provided regarding the graph of the taxi fare, here are the appropriate responses for each statement:

1. The y-intercept is 3.
2. The y-intercept represents the initial fare (or base fare) for the taxi ride before any distance is traveled.

So, the completed statements would be:

• The y-intercept is 3.
• The y-intercept represents the initial fare (or base fare) for the taxi ride before any distance is traveled.
