Answer: b

Step-by-step explanation:

The given graph is the graph of a piecewise function. The equations of the lines are

Considering the First line on left, the equation is

y = - 2x + 1

The line extends towards the right and terminates at a point. The endpoint has an open circle. This means that the coordinates of that point are not inclusive. The x coordinate of the endpoint is 1, Thus, only all values of x less than 1 satisfy this function. The domain is

x < 1

Considering the second line on right, the equation is

y = - x + 2

The line extends towards the right from a point(x = 1). The start point has a closed circle. This means that the coordinates of that point are inclusive. Thus, only all values of x greater than or equal to than 1 satisfy this function. The domain is

x ≥ 1

The correct option is B
