Question

1. using the graph, find the value of $f(1)$.

Explanation:

Step1: Locate x = 1 on the x - axis

Find the point on the x - axis where \(x = 1\). Then, move vertically until we intersect the graph of the function \(f(x)\).

Step2: Determine the y - value at x = 1

From the graph, when we move up (or down) from \(x = 1\) on the x - axis to the graph, we find that the corresponding \(y\) - value (which is \(f(1)\)) is \(- 2\) (by looking at the grid lines, we can see that at \(x = 1\), the function's graph is at \(y=-2\)).

Answer:

\(f(1)=-2\)
