Question

The graph of the function, B(x), is shown below. Determine the following values for the function:

Answer 1

Answer:

$B(-1) = 1\\\\B(3) = 0\\\\B(1) =2$  

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, a relation is a function if each input value has one and only one output value.

The input values are the x-values and the output values are the y-values.

Given:

$B(-1),B(3)$ and $B(1)$

We can identify that we need to find the output values of these input values:

$x=-1\\x=3\\x=1$

Observe in the graph attached that:

• When $x=-1,\ y=1$

• When $x=3,\ y=0$

• When $x=1,\ y=2$  

Therefore:

$B(-1) = 1\\\\B(3) = 0\\\\B(1) =2$
