Math Problem Statement
If the graph represents the curve of the function y = f(x), what is the value of f(2)?
Solution
The graph provided in the image shows a curve representing the function . You are asked to find the value of based on the graph.
To solve this:
- Locate on the horizontal axis.
- From , trace vertically upwards to where it intersects the curve.
- Check the corresponding -value where the curve and the vertical line meet.
From the graph, when , the curve intersects at . Therefore:
Thus, the correct answer is C: 4.
