1. Problem Description

The problem provides a graph of a function ff. We need to:

1. Determine the domain $D_f$ of the function $f$.

2. Determine the images of the following numbers: -5, -4, -3, -2, 0,

4. This means finding the values $f(-5)$, $f(-4)$, $f(-3)$, $f(-2)$, $f(0)$, $f(4)$.

3. Determine the antecedents (preimages) of 5 and

3. This means finding the values of $x$ such that $f(x) = 5$ and $f(x) = 3$.

2. Solution Steps

1. Determining the domain $D_f$ of the function $f$:

From the graph, we see that the function is defined for xx values starting from -5 (inclusive) and extends to approximately x=4x=4 (inclusive). Thus, the domain is the closed interval [5,4][-5, 4].

2. Determining the images of the given numbers:

- f(5)=0f(-5) = 0
- f(4)2f(-4) \approx 2
- f(3)3f(-3) \approx 3
- f(2)4f(-2) \approx 4
- f(0)3f(0) \approx 3
- f(4)=0f(4) = 0

3. Determining the antecedents of 5 and 3:

- For f(x)=5f(x) = 5, we look for points on the graph where y=5y = 5. There are no such points. Thus, 5 has no antecedents.
- For f(x)=3f(x) = 3, we look for points on the graph where y=3y = 3. From the graph, we see that f(x)=3f(x) = 3 for approximately x=3x = -3 and x=0x=0. Therefore, the antecedents of 3 are -3 and
0.

3. Final Answer

1. $D_f = [-5, 4]$

2. $f(-5) = 0$, $f(-4) \approx 2$, $f(-3) \approx 3$, $f(-2) \approx 4$, $f(0) \approx 3$, $f(4) = 0$

3. 5 has no antecedents. The antecedents of 3 are -3 and

0.
