Answer:
The point on the vertical axis (y-axis) represents the y-intercept.
It represents the height over the sea level at the starting point of hiking
Step-by-step explanation:
From the graph
- The y-axis represents the height above the sea level in feet
- The x-axis represents the hours hiking
→ The point on the vertical axis (y-axis) represents
- The initial height above the sea level
- This point is the starting point of hiking
- It called the y-intercept (0, 2000)
→ Which means it represents their height at 0 hour
→ The real-world meaning of that point is:
- They are 2000 feet above the sea level when they decided to start hiking
The point on the vertical axis (y-axis) represents the y-intercept.
It represents the height over the sea level at the starting point of hiking
