The graph represents the piecewise function

Mathematics

The piece-wise function is defined as follows:

  • f(x) = x^2, 0 \leq x < 3.
  • f(x) = -\frac{5}{3}x + 14, 3 < x \leq 6.
  • f(x) = \frac{3}{2}x - 5, 6 \leq x \leq 10.

<h3>What is a piece-wise function?</h3>

A piece-wise function is a function that has multiple definitions, depending on the input.

In this graph, for x at least 0 and less than 3, the parabolic curve passes through (0,0), (1,1), (2,4) and has an open interval at (3,9), hence the definition is:

f(x) = x^2, 0 \leq x < 3

For x greater than 3 and at most 6, it is a line going through (3,9) and (6,4), hence:

m = \frac{9 - 4}{3 - 6} = -\frac{5}{3}

f(x) = -\frac{5}{3}x + b

Goes through (3,9), hence:

9 = -\frac{5}{3}(3) + b

b = 14.

So

f(x) = -\frac{5}{3}x + 14, 3 < x \leq 6

For x between 6 and 10, it is a line going through (6,4) and (10,10), hence:

m = \frac{10 - 4}{10 - 6} = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}

Then:

f(x) = \frac{3}{2}x + b

When x = 10, f(x) = 10, hence:

10 = \frac{3}{2}(10) + b

10 = 15 + b

b = -5.

Hence:

f(x) = \frac{3}{2}x - 5, 6 \leq x \leq 10

Compare the functions shown below:<br><br> Which function has the greatest maximum y-value?
solmaris [256]
Answer: It's a tie between f(x) and h(x). Both have the same max of y = 3

The highest point shown on the graph of f(x) is at (x,y) = (pi,3). The y value here is y = 3.

For h(x), the max occurs when cosine is at its largest: when cos(x) = 1. 
So,
h(x) = 2*cos(x)+1
turns into
h(x) = 2*1+1
h(x) = 2+1
h(x) = 3
showing that h(x) maxes out at y = 3 as well

--------------------------------

Note: g(x) has all of its y values smaller than 0, so there's no way it can have a max y value larger than y = 3. See the attached image to see what this graph would look like if you plotted the 7 points. A parabola seems to form. Note how point D = (-3, -2) is the highest point for g(x). So the max for g(x) is y = -2

If f(x)=x/2 and g(x) = x-3,what is the value of g(f(8))
pochemuha
F(x) = x/2
g(x) = x - 3

f(8) = 8/2 = 4

g(f(x)) = 4 - 3 = 1

Answer g(f(8)) = 1
