  1. Monday, February 22 Essential Questions • How do graph piecewise functions?

  2. 2.5 Use Piecewise Functions Evaluate a piecewise function Example 1 Evaluate the function when x = 3. Solution Because ______, use _______ equation. second Substitute ___ for x. Simplify.

  3. 2.5 Use Piecewise Functions Checkpoint. Evaluate the function when x = -4 and x = 2.

  4. 2.5 Use Piecewise Functions Graph a piecewise function Example 2 Find the x-coordinates for which there are points of discontinuity. Graph Solution • To the _____ of x = -1, graph y = -2x + 1. Use an _____ dot at (-1, ___ ) because the equation y = -2x + 1 __________ apply when x = -1. left open does not • From x = -1 to x = 1, inclusive, graph y = ¼ x. Use _____ dots at both ( -1, ___ ) and ( 1, ___ ) because the equation y = ¼ x applies to both x = -1 and x = 1. - ¼ ¼ solid

  5. 2.5 Use Piecewise Functions Graph a piecewise function Example 2 Find the x-coordinates for which there are points of discontinuity. Graph Solution • To the right of x = 1, graph y = 3. Use an _____ dot at (1, ___ ) because the equation y = 3 __________ apply when x = 1. open does not • Examine the graph. Because there are gaps in the graph at x = _____ and x = ___, these are the x-coordinates for which there are points of _____________. discontinuity

  6. 2.5 Use Piecewise Functions Checkpoint. Complete the following exercise. • Graph the following function and find the x-coordinates for which there are points of discontinuity. and x = 2 Discontinuity at x = 0

  7. 2.5 Use Piecewise Functions Write a piecewise function Example 3 Write a piecewise function for the step function shown. Describe any intervals over which the function is constant. For x between ___ and ___, including x = 1, the graph is the line segment given by y = 1. For x between ___ and ___, including x = 2, the graph is the line segment given by y = 2. piecewise So, a _____________ _________ for the graph is as follows: For x between ___ and ___, including x = 3, the graph is the line segment given by y = 3. function The intervals over which the function is ___________ are ____________, ____________, ______________. constant

  8. 2.5 Use Piecewise Functions Write and analyze a piecewise function Example 4 Write the function as a piecewise function. Find any extrema as well as the rate of change of the function to the left and to the right of the vertex. • Graph the function. Find and label the vertex, one point to the left of the vertex, and one point to the right of the vertex. The graph shows one minimum value of ____, located at the vertex, and no maximum.
