Question

consider a function defined by y = f(x). interpret the meaning of f(5) = 4. when select is , the function value select is

Explanation:

Step1: Recall function notation

In the function $y = f(x)$, $x$ is the input variable and $y$ is the output (function - value). When we write $f(5)=4$, the number inside the parentheses is the input value for the variable $x$.

Step2: Identify input and output

The input value $x = 5$ results in an output value $y = 4$.

Answer:

When $x$ is $5$, the function value $y$ is $4$.
