Question

Use the graph of the following function (x) to find the value. f(1)

Answer 1

From the graph of the given function , the value of f(1) = -1.

As given in the question,

From the graph of the given function,

Two coordinates from the graph are as follow:

( x₁ , y₁) = (1, -1)

( x₂ , y₂ ) = ( 0, -3 )

Equation of the line representing the function is given by:

(y - y₁) /(x-x₁) = ( y₂ -y₁)/ (x₂ -x₁)

⇒(y +1)/ (x-1) = (-3 +1)/ (0-1)

⇒ (y +1)/ (x-1) = 2

⇒y +1 = 2x -2

⇒ y = 2x -3

To get the value of x we have,

  y = f(x)

⇒f(x) = 2x -3

⇒f(1) = 2(1) -3

⇒f(1) = -1

Therefore, from the graph of the given function , the value of f(1) = -1.
