Answer

a) $f(-2)=3$ $f(1)=0$ b) See graph

Work Step by Step

To find $f(-2)$ one first must check what equation to use depending on the condition. Since $-2\leq1$, the first condition is used. Thus: $f(-2)=1-(-2)=3$ To find $f(1)$ one first must check what equation to use depending on the condition. Since $1\leq1$, the first condition is used. Thus: $f(1)=1-1=0$
