What are piecewise functions? A __________ function consists of different function rules for different parts of the domain. 1. Graph f(x) = x Erase part of the graph. What is the domain? What is the NEW equation? ©2010, Dr. Jennifer L. Bell, LaGrange High School, LaGrange, Georgia Adapted from Various Sources MCC9-12.F.IF.7b

What do these symbols mean? _____________ Characteristics 3.What is the domain for the first (left) segment? The Range? 4.What is the domain for the second (middle) segment? The Range? 5.What is the domain for the third (right) segment? The Range? 6.How many equations do you think you would have to use to write rule for the following piecewise function? 7.What is the domain for the first (left) ray? The Range? 8.What is the domain for the second (right) ray? The Range? ©2010, Dr. Jennifer L. Bell, LaGrange High School, LaGrange, Georgia Adapted from Various Sources MCC9-12.F.IF.7b

Graphing by tables Both of the following notations can be used to describe a piecewise function over the function’s domain: f(x) = OR f(x) = xf(x) How many pieces does your graph have? Why? 12. Are the pieces rays or segments? Why? 13. Are all the endpoints solid dots or open dots or some of each? Why? 14. Were all these x values necessary to graph this piecewise function? Could this function have been graphed using less points? 15. Which x values were “critical” to include in order to sketch the graph of this piecewise function? 9.Complete the following table of values for the piecewise function. 10.Graph the ordered pairs from your table to graph the piecewise function ©2010, Dr. Jennifer L. Bell, LaGrange High School, LaGrange, Georgia Adapted from Various Sources MCC9-12.F.IF.7b

16. Graph this piecewise function by completing a table of values: f(x) = 17.How many pieces does your graph have? Why? 18.Are the pieces rays or segments? Why? 19.Are all the endpoints filled circles or open circles or some of each? Why? 20. Was it necessary to evaluate both pieces of the function for the x-value 1? Why or why not? 21. Which x values were “critical” to include in order to graph this piecewise function? Explain.
