Explanation:

Step1: Locate x = -3 on the graph

We need to find the value of the function \( f(x) \) at \( x = -3 \). So we look at the graph of the piecewise function and find the point corresponding to \( x = -3 \).

Step2: Determine the y - value at x = -3

From the graph, we can see that at \( x=-3 \), the filled - in dot (which represents the value of the function at that point) has a y - coordinate of - 3. So we conclude that \( f(-3)=-3 \).

Answer:

\( f(-3)=-3 \)
