Morphology
The meaning 'to give a response or share information' is directly derivable from combining 'feed' (to supply/give) with 'back' (to return/support) — essentially ‘supply back’ information. This verb+particle composition is a regular, cross-linguistically common pattern, so a B1 learner who knows both words would readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Feed back comes from early machines that feed their own output back into themselves, like a machine that takes what it makes and gives it in again. So when you feed back a file or data, you put information into a program again so it can do more work on it.
