What is the y intercept of the exponintal equation, y=(10)5^x
----
Let x = 0
Then y = 10*1
The y-intercept is (0,10)

The y-intercept occurs where x = 0
Use the rule that says " Anything raised to
the zero power = 1"
---------------
Let +x+=+0+
+y+=+10%2A5%5Ex+
+y+=+10%2A5%5E0+
+y+=+10%2A1+
+y+=+10+
The y-intercept is at (0,10)
