In this lesson we’ll be covering how to set-up piecewise defined functions based on story problems. Keep in mind that each piece of a piecewise defined function has its own domain, so we’ll also have to set-up an interval for each piece, just like the sample piecewise function given below:
Objective 2.02 Use piece-wise defined functions to model and solve problems; justify results. a) Solve using tables, graphs and algebraic properties. b) Interpret the constants, coefficients, and bases in context of the problem. Interval Notation: Parenthesis, brackets or a combination of both.
3.3 Piecewise Functions . 1. Use the piecewise function to evaluate the following. 𝑓(𝑥) = 3 𝑥−2, 𝑥< −3 2𝑥. 2. −3𝑥, −3 < 𝑥≤6 8, 1 𝑥> 6. 2. Graph the following piecewise function. 𝑓(𝑥) = − 1 3 𝑥−2, 𝑥≤0 2 𝑥+ 1, 𝑥> 0
20 sty 2022 · Graph each formula of the piecewise function over its corresponding domain. Use the same scale for the x-axis and y-axis for each graph. Indicate inclusive endpoints with a solid circle and exclusive endpoints with an open circle.

Evaluate the function for the given value of x. Match the piecewise function with its graph. Write the answer next to the problem number.
You have a summer job that pays time and half for overtime. That means, if you work more than 40 hours in a week, your hourly wage for the extra hours in 1.5 times your normal rate of $7 per hour. Write a piecewise function describing your weekly pay, P in term of the number of hours worked, h.
