Answer:

y = 39 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical intercept of a linear function, also known as the y-intercept, is the value of y at the point x=0.

If the function that represents the distance (in meters) between the tortoise and the hare as they are running a 100 meter race, is h(x) = 39 - 6.5x, the vertical intercept is:

[tex]h(0) = 39 - 6.5*0\\h(0)=39\ m[/tex]

The vertical intercept of the function is y =39 m.
