Transcribed Image Text:The image presents a piecewise-defined function. To find specific values of \( f(x) \), you select the appropriate expression based on the value of \( x \).
The function \( f(x) \) is defined as follows:
- \( f(x) = 1 - 4x \) if \( x \leq -2 \)
- \( f(x) = 4x \) if \( -2 < x < 6 \)
- \( f(x) = 5x + 5 \) if \( x \geq 6 \)
Below the function definition, there is a task to find \( f(-4) \), with a blank box provided for the answer.
Since \( -4 \) falls in the range \( x \leq -2 \), you use the expression \( 1 - 4x \) to find \( f(-4) \).
