Question

The table represents a function.

A 2-column table with 4 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries negative 4, negative 1, 3, 5. The second column is labeled f of x with entries negative 2, 5, 4, negative 8.
What is f(5)?

Answer 1

f(5) = - 8.

Explanation:

There are two columns and 4 rows in the given table.

The first column is labeled x with different four entries and the second column is labeled f(x) with four different entries corresponding to the values of x since y = f(x).

The four ordered pairs are (-4,-2), (-1,5), (3,4) and (5,- 8).

So, from the fourth ordered pair, we can write f(5) = - 8. (Answer)
