Question

Graph this following function

Answer 1

Please find attached the graph of the following function;

`\left\{\begin{matrix}x - 1 & if & -2 \leq x < 0\\ 1 & if & x = 0 \\ 3 & if & 0 < x \leq 2\end{matrix}\right.`

Explanation:

We note that the function is linear from x = 2 to just before x = 0

The linear relationship of the function f(x) with x changes just before x = 0

At x = 0, the value of f(x) is indicated as 1

From just after x = 0, the function is a straight horizontal line y = 3

The function also changes value immediately after x = 0 to the line y = 3

The areas where the function is defined are shown in continuous lines
