Question

What ordered pair contains the y-intercept of y= -2x^ -4x -5

(-1,3)
(0,-5)
(-5,0)
(0,-2)

Answer 1

(0,-5) is the y-intercept

Answer 2

To find the y-intercept, we can set x = 0 in the equation y= -2x^2 -4x -5, which gives us:

y = -2(0)^2 - 4(0) - 5 = -5

So the y-intercept is (0, -5). Therefore, the correct answer is (0,-5).
