Question

complete the description of the piecewise function graphed below

f(x)= { -1 if
2 if
-5 if

Answer 1

It looks like you're describing a piecewise function but haven't included the specific conditions for each piece. A piecewise function typically defines different outputs based on specific intervals or conditions for the input \( x \). Here’s an example of how you might complete the description based on a common structure:

\[
f(x) =
\begin{cases}
-1 & \text{if } x < 0 \\
2 & \text{if } 0 \leq x < 3 \\
-5 & \text{if } x \geq 3
\end{cases}
\]

In this example:
- \( f(x) = -1 \) when \( x \) is less than 0,
- \( f(x) = 2 \) when \( x \) is between 0 (inclusive) and 3 (exclusive),
- \( f(x) = -5 \) when \( x \) is 3 or greater.

Please provide any specific intervals or conditions you’d like to use for your function so I can offer a more tailored response!
