Question
Use the image to answer the question.

Two side-by-side shaded ovals labeled x and y each display a list of values. Five arrows point from the values in the left oval, x, to the values in the right oval, y.

This map shows ordered pairs that belong to the function f(x)=x2
. What is the missing value?

(1 point)

1 answer

To find the missing value that corresponds to the function \( f(x) = x^2 \), we need to evaluate the function for each given input value from the left oval (x-values) and then identify the corresponding output value (y-values) in the right oval.

For example, if the left oval contains the value 2, we calculate:

\[ f(2) = 2^2 = 4 \]

If the left oval contains the value -3, we calculate:

\[ f(-3) = (-3)^2 = 9 \]

You would perform this evaluation for each given x-value from the left oval. The output values that result from these calculations will help you identify the missing value (y-value) in the right oval.

If you provide the specific x-values you see in the left oval, I can help you determine the corresponding missing y-value.
