Concept explainers
To find: The piecewise formula for the given function.
Answer to Problem 41E
The
Explanation of Solution
Given information: The graph of the function is:
Calculation:
The graph of the function consists of two straight lines that passes through the points
Use the formula for the slope of line that passes through
The equation of the line passing through the points
So, the equation of the first line is
Use the formula for the slope of line that passes through
The equation of the line passing through the points
So, the equation of the second line is
Therefore, the piecewise function for the given graph of function is
