Answer

a) $f(5)= 3$ b) $f(-3)= 1$

Work Step by Step

a) The graph shows that when $x= 5$, $y= 3$. Therefore: \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} f(5)&= 3. \end{aligned} \end{equation} b) The graph shows that when $y= 1$, $x= -3$. Therefore: \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} f(-3) & =1. \end{aligned} \end{equation}
