Answer:

The function is f(x) = 2x + 3 for x ≥ - 2 and f(x) = - 2x - 5 for, x < - 2.

The vertex of the function is (-2,-1)

Domain of the function is (-∞, +∞)

Range of the function is [-1, +∞).

Explanation:

The function has a graph in two parts.

The right side part passes through the points (-2,-1) and (0,3).

So, the equation of this part will be


(y - 3)/(3 - (- 1)) = (x - 0)/(0 - (- 2))

⇒ y - 3 = 2x

y = 2x + 3

Again, the left side part of the graph passes through the points (-2,-1) and (-4,3).

Therefore, the equation of this part will be


(y - 3)/(3 - (- 1)) = (x - (- 4))/(- 4 - (- 2))

⇒ y - 3 = - 2(x + 4)

⇒ y - 3 = - 2x - 8

y = - 2x - 5

Therefore, the function is f(x) = 2x + 3 for x ≥ - 2 and f(x) = - 2x - 5 for, x < - 2. (Answer)
