The function f is given in three equivalent forms.
Which form most quickly reveals the y-intercept?

The function (f) that quickly reveals the y-intercept is: B. f(x) = -3x² + 12x + 15

Recall:

Therefore, from the options given, the only polynomial function that is in standard form is: f(x) = -3x² + 12x + 15

The constant represents the y-intercept which is 15.

Therefore, the function (f) that quickly reveals the y-intercept is: B. f(x) = -3x² + 12x + 15

The one that gives us the fastest y-intercept is "b". The coordinates are (0,15).

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to check which form gives us the fastest y-intercept value, let's apply x = 0 in all three of them and check how many operations we need to do to get our desired results.

a) f(x) = -3*(x - 2)² + 27

f(0) = -3*(0 - 2)² + 27

f(0) = -3*(4) + 27

f(0) = -12 + 27

f(0) = 15

b) f(x) = -3*x² + 12*x + 15

f(0) = -3*(0)² + 12*(0) + 15

f(0) = 15

c) f(x) = -3*(x + 1)*(x - 5)

f(0) = -3*(0+1)*(0-5)

f(0) = -3*(-5)

f(0) = 15

The fastest one is "b". Since it is in the standard second degree equation form "a*x² + b*x + c", we could have checked immediately by the value of "c".

The y-interecept is (0,15).

really really sorry if i'm

-12 -5(x + 4) = 3x

-12 - 5x - 20 = 3x

-12 - 20 - 5x = 3x

-32 - 5x = 3x

    + 5x   + 5x

-32 = 8x

8         8

- 4= x

the answer is b.
