Question

The graph of a function f is shown below. Find f (2)

Answer 1

Answer:  f(2) is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2) just means "what is the vale of the function, f, when x = 2?  Look for x=2 and read the y value where the line crosses x=2, in this case, the y value is 3.  So f(2) = 3.

[One could also determine the equation for the line.  Provided below.]  

The slope is -(1/2) and the y-intercept is 4:

y = -(1/2)x + 4

For x=2,

y = -(1/2)*(2) + 4

y = 3  

y(2) = 3
