Chapter 14: Q. 17 (page 889)

In Problems 13–32, use the accompanying graph of $y = f (x) .$
Find $f (- 8) a n d f (- 4) .$

Short Answer

Expert verified

The answer is $f (- 8) = 0 . f (- 4) = 2 .$

Step by step solution

Step. 1 Given

We have to find the points on graph which intersect with the lines $x = - 8 a n d x = - 4$ respectively to find $f (- 8) a n d f (- 4)$ .

Step. 2 Final answer

So, from analyzing the graph when $x = - 8$ the graph intersects the x-axis which means the y co-ordinate is 0. Therefore, $f (- 8) = 0$ .

Similarly, when $x = - 4$ the graph touches it at the co-ordinate (-4,2) as mentioned in the graph itself. Therefore, $f (- 4) = 2$ .
