From the graph provided, the goal is to determine the value of $f(1)$, which is the $y$-coordinate of the point on the graph where $x = 1$.

Looking at the graph:

• At $x = 1$, trace vertically upward or downward to the curve of the graph.
• The corresponding $y$-value is approximately $3$.

Thus, $f(1) = 3$.

Let me know if you'd like further clarification!

Related Questions:

1. What is the value of $f(3)$ from the graph?
2. Is the function $f(x)$ increasing or decreasing at $x = 1$?
3. Can you identify the $x$-intercepts of the graph?
4. What is the maximum value of $f(x)$ in the interval $[-2, 4]$?
5. How would you describe the overall shape of the function?

Tip:

When analyzing a graph, always identify the $x$- and $y$-coordinates clearly to avoid misreading values.
