Answer:


f(x)=\begin{cases}-(x+10),x<-5 \\ -3,x>2\end{cases}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the function is a diagonal line between - infniity and -5.

The equation of the diagonal line is


y=-(x+10)

Therefore, we can write


f(x)=-(x+10)\text{ for -}\inftyNow between 2 and inifity, the function takes the value y = -3; therefore, we can write [tex]f(x)=-3,\text{ for 2Hence, the piecewise function is [tex]f(x)=\begin{cases}-(x+10),x<-5 \\ -3,x>2\end{cases}
