On a coordinate plane, a piecewise function has 3 lines. The first line has a closed circle at (negative 3, negative 4) and continues horizontally to an open circle at (0, negative 4). The second line has a closed circle at (0, 2) and continues horizontally to an open circle at (4, 2). The third line has a closed circle at (4, 3) and continues horizontally through (5, 3) with an arrow instead of an endpoint.

A step function is shown on the graph. What are the domain and range?

Answer:Answer:

f(-2) = 2

f(0) = 3

f (4) = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the straight line passing through the points (0,3) and (-4,1) is

⇒ 2(y - 1) = x + 4

⇒ 2y - 2 = x + 4

⇒ 2y = x + 6

Again, the equation of the line passing through the points (0,1) and (4,-1) is

⇒ - 2 ( y + 1) = x - 4

⇒ - 2y = x - 2

Therefore, the function is defined as

for x ≤ 0 ........... (1) and

for x > 0 ............ (2)

Therefore, f(-2) = 2 from equation (1).

f(0) = 3 from equation (1)

And f (4) = -1 from equation (2). (Answer)
