Answer:

f(1) = -1

Explanation:

Quadratic equations form the shape of a parabola, which looks like a U-shape.

Graph

To find f(1) we need to find the y-value when x = 1. To do this, we can just look at the graph. Find where on the graph x = 1, then look for where the graph intersects this value. This graph has an x value of 1 when y = -1. We can see this at the coordinate point (1,-1). Thus, f(1) = -1.

Equation

We can also solve this using the equation of the function. This function is represented by f(x) = x² - 2. Now, to find f(1), plug 1 in for x.

  • f(1) = 1² - 2
  • f(1) = -1

This also shows that f(1) = -1.
