Answer:

f(-1) = 3

Explanation:

See the graph shown in the attached file with the given question.

The graph passes through (0.5,0) point on the X-axis and (0,1) point on the Y-axis.

So, the length of the X-intercept is 0.5 and that of Y-intercept is 1.

Hence, the equation of the straight line graph is


(x)/(0.5) +(y)/(1) =1 {Using the intercept form}

⇒ 2x + y = 1 ....... (1)

Now, y = f(x) = 1 - 2x

Hence, f(-1) = 1 - 2 ( - 1 ) = 3 (Answer)
