A curve has gradient and passes through the point . Find the -intercept of the curve.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. 1
- Step 1: Integrate: . Step 2. Substitute : , so , which is the -intercept. Answer: 1. Why not the others: 10: That is the -coordinate of the given point, not the intercept. -1: The sign of the constant is reversed. 9: That is the integral term only; the constant has not been added.
