In piecewise linear functions, the endpoint of one segment and the initial point of the next segment can have the same x-coordinate but a different value of f(x).
Such difference in values is called a step or discontinuity and such a function is called a discontinuous function.
Here in this case, there are 3 discontinuities: x=-3, x=3 and x = 5.
x = -3 because x is smaller than or greater than -3 but not equal.
x = 3 since greater than 3 in one of the inequalities.
x = 5 since x is smaller than 5 in one of the limits.
The answer would be 7/24.

Answer:
x = -5
x = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
- 7x - 60 = x^2 + 10x
add 7x to both sides
x^2 + 17x = -60
add 60 to both sides
x^2 + 17x + 60 = 0
factorise quadratic
(x + 12) (x + 5) = 0
<em>x = -12</em>
<em>x = -12x = -5</em>
