The graph of the piecewise function on the coordinate plane, created with MS Excel is attached
The steps used to find the graph of the piecewise function can be presented as follows;
The piecewise function can be presented as follows;
f(x) = x + 3 for -6 ≤ x < -1
f(x) = 1 for x = -1
f(x) = 3 for -1 < x ≤ 3
The table of values for the equation y = x + 3 can be presented as follows;
x; -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1
y; -3 -2 -1 0 1 2
The equation f(x) = 1 when x = -1, represents the point on the coordinate plane, with coordinate (-1, 1)
The equation f(x) = 3 indicates that f(x) = 3 for the values of x including
x = -1, 0, 1, and 3
The above values can be used to plot the graph of the piecewise function using with MS Excel
