Question

find the value of $f(6)$.
$y = f(x)$
(graph of a function with x-axis from -10 to 10 and y-axis from -10 to 10, showing a curve crossing the x-axis at 5 and 9, with a minimum point around x=7)
answer
attempt 1 out of 2

Explanation:

Step1: Locate x = 6 on the x - axis

Find the point on the x - axis where the value is 6.

Step2: Find the corresponding y - value on the graph of \(y = f(x)\)

From the graph, when \(x = 6\), we look at the curve of \(y=f(x)\) and find the y - coordinate of the point on the curve with \(x = 6\). By observing the graph, we can see that at \(x = 6\), the y - value (the value of \(f(6)\)) is - 5.

Answer:

-5
