Question

The table represents a function..

What is f(5)?

Answer 1

The correct option is 1. The value of f(5) is -8.

Explanation:

In the given table the first column represents the values of x and the second column represents the values of function f(x) at difference values of x.

From the given table it is clear that

The value of function is -2 at x=-4. It means f(-4)=-2.

The value of function is 5 at x=-1. It means f(-1)=5.

The value of function is 4 at x=3. It means f(3)=4.

The value of function is -8 at x=5. It means f(5)=-8.

The value of f(5) is -8. Therefore the correct option is 1.

Answer 2

The number inside parenthesis is the x value.

Look up the provided X value and see what the corresponding Y value is, which would be the answer.

In the given table when X is 5, the f(x) = -8
