Gr10 piecewise functions
Download as PPT, PDF1 like1,582 views
This document discusses different types of piecewise functions including: - Piecewise functions which use separate equations depending on the domain values. For example, one equation for when x ≤ 1 and another for when x > 1. - An example problem evaluating a piecewise function at different x values and determining which equation to use. - Graphing a piecewise function involves using one equation's graph for values below a breaking point, and another equation's graph for values at or above the breaking point. - Greatest integer functions which return the greatest integer less than or equal to the input value. An example graph of y = [x] + 2 is shown and evaluated in a table.

- 3. Constant Function: A linear function in the form y = b. y = 3
- 4. Identity Function: A linear function in the form y = x. y=x
- 5. Up to now, we’ve been looking at functions represented by a single equation. In real life, however, functions are represented by a combination of equations, each corresponding to a part of the domain. These are called piecewise functions.
- 6. One equation gives the value of f (x) when x ≤ 1 And the other when x>1
- 7. Evaluate f(x) when x=0, x=2, x=4 First you have to figure out which equation to use You NEVER use both X=0 This one fits into the top equation So: 0+2=2 f(0)=2 X=2 This one fits here So: 2(2) + 1 = 5 f(2) = 5 X=4 This one fits here So: 2(4) + 1 = 9 f(4) = 9
- 8. Graph: For all x’s < 1, use the top graph (to the left of 1) For all x’s ≥ 1, use the bottom graph (to the right of 1)
- 9. x=1 is the breaking point of the graph. To the left is the top equation. To the right is the bottom equation.
