You didn't specify the equation. A minimum or maximum value of a function is often found by calculating the derivative of a function, writing an equation for derivative equal to zero, and then analyzing points where the derivative either doesn't exist, or is equal to zero. You'll find find information about this in introductory calculus books.

How do you find the y-intercept of a function?

The y-intercept is the value of a function f when x is equal to zero. So, substitute 0 for x into the equation and find the value of y.


How do you find the y intercept of a line?

To find the y-intercept of a line, set the x-coordinate to zero in the line's equation. For example, if the equation is in the form (y = mx + b), the y-intercept is simply the value of (b). If the equation is in standard form, (Ax + By = C), rearrange it to solve for (y) when (x = 0). The resulting value of (y) at that point is the y-intercept.

What is number y?

Whatever you want it to be. In mathematics, letters are used for "variables", placeholders for a number which is not specified. Sometimes you are supposed to find a value of "y" so that a certain equation is true. For example, if y + 5 = 8, the only correct value for y is 3. In another equation, "y" may have a different value.


In the equation y3x-1what is the value of y when when x -3?

To find the value of ( y ) in the equation ( y = 3x - 1 ) when ( x = -3 ), substitute (-3) for ( x ): [ y = 3(-3) - 1 = -9 - 1 = -10 ] Thus, when ( x = -3 ), ( y ) is (-10).
