Math Problem Statement

Find f(1) based on the graph provided.

Solution

To find f(1)f(1), we need to evaluate the function f(x)f(x) at x=1x = 1.

Analyzing the Graph of f(x)f(x)

The graph provided represents f(x)f(x) as a straight line, indicating that it is a linear function. Observing where the line crosses the y-axis (y-intercept) and its slope can help confirm the value of f(1)f(1).

  1. From the graph, locate x=1x = 1 on the x-axis.
  2. Check the corresponding y-value on the graph for this x-coordinate.

Solution

Upon examining the graph, at x=1x = 1, the y-value (or f(1)f(1)) appears to be 1.

Thus, f(1)=1f(1) = 1

Additional Questions:

  1. How can we determine the equation of the line f(x)f(x) from the graph?
  2. What is the significance of the slope in this linear function?
  3. How would we find f(x)f(x) values for other points not shown in the table?
  4. What would f(x)f(x) look like if it were a quadratic function instead?
  5. Can we use similar methods to find g(x)g(x) or h(x)h(x) values for specific x-values?

Tip:

For linear functions, knowing the slope and y-intercept allows you to write the equation of the line, which can simplify finding values like f(x)f(x) for any x
