A model y = 0.5x + 6 gives predicted plant height y in inches for x days after transplanting, with x >= 0. Which statement about the intercepts is correct?
A
The y-intercept is 0.5 inch at day 0, and the x-intercept is 6 days.
B
Both intercepts are meaningful because the graph extends indefinitely in both directions.
C
The x-intercept is 6 inches at day 0; the y-intercept is -12 days.
D
The y-intercept is 6 inches at day 0; the x-intercept is -12 days and is not meaningful for days after transplanting.
