Answer:
y = {-1/2x +7 for x < 6; 1/2x +1 for x ≥ 6}
Explanation:
You want y = 1/2|x -6| +4 written as a piecewise function.
Domains
The absolute value function changes its definition when its argument is negative:
y = |x| ⇒ y = -x for x < 0, and y = x for x ≥ 0
This means our piecewise function will have one definition for (x-6) < 0 and another for (x -6) ≥ 0.
For x -6 < 0
The argument is negated in this domain, so we have ...
y = -1/2(x -6) +4
y = -1/2x +3 +4
y = -1/2x +7
For x -6 ≥ 0
The absolute value function is an identity function in this domain:
y = 1/2(x -6) +4
y = 1/2x -3 +4
y = 1/2x +1
Piecewise function
Combining these descriptions into one, we have ...
