11 The graph of \(y = \mathrm{f}(x)\) is drawn on the grid.

Grid with x from -2 to 4 and y from -4 to 6 showing a U-shaped curve y = f(x) crossing the y-axis at -2, with its lowest point at (1, -3) and crossing the x-axis at about -0.75 and 2.75
(a) Write down the coordinates of the turning point of the graph. (1)
(b) Write down estimates for the roots of \(\mathrm{f}(x) = 0\) (1)
(c) Use the graph to find an estimate for \(\mathrm{f}(1.5)\) (1)
