Regents Exam: Algebra I August 2016 (Problem 11 of 37)

The video tutorial guides viewers through determining which of four given functions has the greatest Y intercept. Each function is presented in a different form: slope-intercept, standard, point-slope, and graphical. The tutorial systematically analyzes each option, converting forms where necessary, to identify the Y intercept. Ultimately, the function represented graphically is found to have the greatest Y intercept of 5.

What is the main goal of the problem discussed in the video?

• To find the function with the greatest slope

• To determine which function has the greatest Y intercept

• To find the function with the smallest Y intercept

• To convert all functions to standard form

What is the Y intercept of the function F(x) = 3x?

• 3

• 0

• 4

• -3

How is the Y intercept found for a function in standard form?

• By graphing the function

• By setting Y to zero and solving for X

• By converting it to point-slope form

• By converting it to slope-intercept form

What is the Y intercept of the line described by a slope of 2 and passing through the point (1, -4)?

• -6

• 2

• 4

• 0

Which option has the greatest Y intercept?

• Option 4

• Option 3

• Option 1

• Option 2
