Math Problem Statement
Student A and student B were given the following graph and asked to find the value of f(x) when x = 1. Student A gave an answer of 0 while student B gave an answer of −6. Who is incorrect? Drag and drop the correct option into each box to complete the explanation of the error.
Student is incorrect. The student started at on the y-axis, did not need to move horizontally to get to the graph, and so moved to on the x-axis. The student should have started at on the x-axis, moved to the graph, and then moved to on the y-axis, which is what student did.
