Answer:

f(5) = -2

Explanation:

Hello! So, when we have f(5), that is in the form of f(x). That means that our x = 5. Another thing to note is that f(x) is equivalent to our y-coordinate: the x-coordinate is the x value in the equation and the value is the f(x) in the equation.


Now we need to locate where x = 5 on the graph. When you find that, you need to see what point falls on x = 5. That points y-coordinate is your answer.


So if we look at x=5, the point (5, -2) falls on it. So f(5) = -2.

Let me know if you have any questions.
