To find the value of the function y = 1/8 x - 13 at each of the given x-values, plug each x-value into the function and solve for y.

1. When x = -4:
y = 1/8(-4) - 13
y = -1/2 - 13
y = -13.5

2. When x = -16:
y = 1/8(-16) - 13
y = -2 - 13
y = -15

3. When x = -12.5:
y = 1/8(-12.5) - 13
y = -1.5625 - 13
y = -14.5625

4. When x = -13.5:
y = 1/8(-13.5) - 13
y = -1.6875 - 13
y = -14.6875

5. When x = 15:
y = 1/8(15) - 13
y = 1.875 - 13
y = -11.125

Therefore, the values of the function y = 1/8 x - 13 at x = -4, -16, -12.5, -13.5 and 15 are -13.5, -15, -14.5625, -14.6875, and -11.125 respectively.
