Question

Given the piecewise function. Shown below

Find the g(x) values for the given x values.
X values:
-2
0
2
4
6​

Answer 1

(x, g(x)) = {(-2, -2), (0, 0), (2, 2), (4, -3), (6, -3)}

Explanation:

The first three values of x in the table are all less than or equal to 2, so the first part of the function definition applies. The y-value is equal to the x-value. The ordered pairs are ...

(-2, -2), (0, 0), (2, 2)

The last two values of x in the table are more than 2, so the last part of the function definition applies. For those values of x, the y-value is -3. The ordered pairs are ...

(4, -3), (6, -3)
