SOLUTION: What is the y-intercept of the graph of y = 2^x + ^2? I am a little confused but I think the ^x and ^2 are both exponents, so x = 0 2(2) = 4 answer 0, 4 Am I correct?

Question 151552: What is the y-intercept of the graph of y = 2^x + ^2?
I am a little confused but I think
the ^x and ^2 are both exponents,
so x = 0
2(2) = 4
answer 0, 4
Am I correct?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Jayne, you are missing an important element of the problem!
y+=+2%5Ex%2Ba%5E2 The base in the second term (that's the a in my version) is missing and without this, it's impossible to solve.
