[tex] \\ \text{Consider the given table for the function }f(x).\\ \\ \text{we know that for any function f(x), the value of the function at}\\ \text{any point x=a is given by the expression }f(a).\\ \\ \text{so in order to find the value of the f(8), we look for the value of}\\ \text{the function at x=8.}\\ \\ \text{from the given table, we can see that at x=8, the function value is 52}\\ \\ \text{hence the value of function at x=8 is given by, }f(8)=52.

From the table, we can see that f(8) = 52
