Explanation:

Step1: Locate x=1 on x - axis

Find the position of \( x = 1 \) on the horizontal (x - axis) of the graph.

Step2: Find corresponding y - value

From \( x = 1 \), move vertically (up or down) to intersect the graph of the function. Then, determine the corresponding \( y \) - value (which is \( f(1) \)) by checking the grid. Looking at the graph, when \( x = 1 \), the graph lies on the x - axis (since the horizontal line at \( y = 0 \) passes through \( x = 1 \) in the domain of the function's graph here). Wait, actually, let's re - examine the graph. Wait, the graph's domain: looking at the blue graph, let's check the x - values. Wait, maybe I misread. Wait, the x - axis has labels from - 10 to 10. Wait, the blue graph: let's see the points. Wait, maybe the graph is defined for x values? Wait, no, the problem is to find \( f(1) \). Wait, maybe the graph at \( x = 1 \) is on the x - axis? Wait, no, let's check the grid. Wait, maybe the graph is a piece - wise function. Wait, perhaps I made a mistake. Wait, let's look again. Wait, the x - axis: positive x is to the right, negative to the left. The y - axis: positive up, negative down. Wait, when \( x = 1 \), the graph (the blue line) – wait, maybe the graph is not defined at \( x = 1 \)? No, the problem says "use the graph to find \( f(1) \)". Wait, maybe the graph is such that at \( x = 1 \), the y - value is 0? Wait, no, maybe I misread the graph. Wait, let's check the coordinates. Wait, the grid: each square is 1 unit? Let's assume each grid square is 1 unit. So, when \( x = 1 \), the graph (the function's graph) – looking at the graph, the region where \( x = 1 \) is in the part where the graph is on the x - axis? Wait, no, maybe the graph is a horizontal line at \( y = 0 \) for \( x \) in some interval. Wait, perhaps the correct value is 0? Wait, no, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's re - evaluate. Wait, the graph: let's see the blue line. The leftmost part: a vertical line at \( x=-5 \) with \( y = - 5 \) (wait, no, the blue dot is at \( x=-5 \), \( y=-5 \)? Wait, no, the blue dot: x - coordinate is - 5, y - coordinate is - 5? Wait, no, the y - axis labels: - 10, - 8, - 6, - 4, - 2, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. Wait, the blue dot: x=-5, y=-5? No, the y - axis: when x=-5, the blue dot is at y=-5? Wait, no, the y - axis numbers: - 10 (top), then - 8, - 6, - 4, - 2, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 (bottom). Wait, no, that's reversed. Wait, usually, y - axis: positive up, so the top should be positive 10, bottom negative 10. Oh! I had the y - axis reversed. So the top of the y - axis is positive 10, bottom is negative 10. So the blue dot: x=-5, y = 5? Wait, no, the blue dot is at x=-5, and the y - coordinate: looking at the grid, from the x - axis (y = 0) up to the blue dot: it's 5 units up? Wait, no, the grid lines: each square is 1 unit. So if x=-5, and the blue dot is at y = 5? Wait, no, the label on the y - axis: the top is - 10? No, that can't be. Wait, the original image: the y - axis on the right has labels 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, 0, - 2, - 4, - 6, - 8, - 10? Wait, no, the user's graph: the x - axis is at the bottom, with arrow to the right (positive x), and y - axis on the left, arrow up (positive y). Wait, the grid: the top - most y - value is - 10? That's incorrect. It should be positive 10 at the top. So there's a mislabeling in the image, but assuming standard coordinate system (positive y up, positive x right), then when x = 1, the graph (the function's graph) – looking at the graph, the region where x = 1 is in the part where the graph is on the x - axis (y = 0). Wait, no, maybe the graph is such that at x = 1, f(1)=0. Wait, but maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's check again. Alternatively, maybe the graph is a piece - wise function, and at x = 1, the y - value is 0. So I think f(1)=0.

Answer:

\( 0 \)
