### Piecewise Defined Function Graph

The image provided includes graphs for the piecewise defined function:

\[ f(x) =
\begin{cases} 
0 & \text{if } x < 7 \\
1 & \text{if } x \geq 7 
\end{cases}
\]

#### Analysis of the Provided Graphs

Here is a detailed explanation of each graph in the image:

1. **Top Left Graph**:
   - **X-axis**: -10 to 10.
   - **Y-axis**: -10 to 10.
   - **Behavior**:
     - For \( x < 7 \), the function value is 0 (illustrated by the horizontal line at \( y = 0 \) extending from \(-10\) to just before 7 on the x-axis with an open circle at \( x = 7 \)). 
     - For \( x \geq 7 \), the function value is 1 (represented by a horizontal line at \( y = 1 \) starting at \( x = 7 \) and moving to the right, with a solid circle at \( x = 7 \) indicating inclusion).

2. **Top Right Graph**:
   - **X-axis**: -10 to 10.
   - **Y-axis**: -10 to 10.
   - **Behavior**:
     - For \( x < 7 \), the function value remains at 0 (horizontal line at \( y = 0 \)).
     - For \( x \geq 7 \), the function value is 1. This is consistent with the definition, where at \( x = 7 \), the solid circle indicates \( f(7) = 1 \).

3. **Bottom Left Graph**:
   - **X-axis**: -10 to 10.
   - **Y-axis**: -10 to 10.
   - **Behavior**:
     - For \( x < 7 \), the function value is 0.
     - For \( x \geq 7 \), the function value is 1 (solid circle at \( x = 7 \)).

4. **Bottom Right Graph**:
   - **X-axis**: -10 to 10.
   - **Y-axis**: -10 to 10.
   - **Behavior**:
     - This replicates the previous graphs:
