Answer:

f(-5)=-11

Explanation:

Given the piecewise function:

[tex]f(x)=\begin{cases}{-3x+1,\text{ when }x>1} \\ {-2x,\text{ when }x=1} \\ {2x-1,\text{ when }x<1}\end{cases}[/tex]

We want to find the value of f(-5).

When x=-5:

[tex]\begin{gathered} -5<1\implies f(x)=2x-1 \\ \text{ Therefore:} \\ f(-5)=2(-5)-1 \\ =-10-1 \\ =-11 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The value of f(-5) is -11.
