Answer:
The y-intercept for the model is -24.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The linear function [tex]y=17x-24[/tex] models the relationship between the weekly profit in dollars,y, when the company sells x T-shirts.
To find : Which of these is the best interpretation of the y-intercept for this model ?
Solution :
The general slope form of line is [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
where, m is the slope
and b is the y-intercept
On comparing [tex]y=17x-24[/tex] with general form,
m=17 and b=-24.
So, the y-intercept for the model is -24.
