<span>To convert 12.5 to a fraction, consider the decimal portion of the number, .5. Since .5 is in the tenth spot of the decimal, it may be read as five-tenths, or 5/10. To reduce it to lowest terms, find the lowest common denominator, 5, and divide each by that number to get 1/2, or one-half. Thus, the number is now 12 1/2. To convert this mixed number into an entirely rational fraction, multiply the whole number, 12, by the denominator, 2, to get 24, then add the numerator, to end up with 25. This is the new numerator, so the rational number is 25/2. To check the work, divide 25 by 2 on a calculator or as a decimal equation, yielding 12.5.</span>

Complete the description of the piecewise function graphed below. Use interval notation to indicate intervals.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

{ -2 if x ∈ -4 < x < -3

{ -5 if x ∈ -3 ≤ x < 2

[ 5 if x ∈ 2 ≤ x < 5    

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, we have;

{ -2 if x ∈ -4 < x < -3

For the next inequality line at y = -5, we have;

1) The inequality line, starts with an open circle on the left at x = -3, which is equivalent to less than or equal to symbol, ≤ as -3 ≤ x because the point x =-3 is the left boundary.  The inequality line extends to the point x = 2, where we have a closed circle (on the right), which is equivalent to a x ≤ 2 with the 2 on the right hand side because, the 2 is the right boundary of the inequality

2) The inequality can be summarized as starting from x = -3 extends to x = 2

3) As stated in point 1) the point x = 3, we have -3 ≤ x and at point x = 2, we have x ≤ 3 which can be combined as  -3 ≤ x < 2, to give;

{ -5 if x ∈ -3 ≤ x < 2

For the next inequality line at y = 5, we have;

1) The inequality line, starts with an open circle on the left at x = 2, which is equivalent to less than or equal to symbol, ≤ as 2 ≤ x because the point x =2 is the left boundary.  The inequality line extends to the right to reach point x = 5, where we have a closed circle (on the right), which is equivalent to a x ≤ 5 inequality, with the 5 on the right hand side because, the 5 is the right boundary of the inequality

2) The inequality can be summarized as starting from x = 2 extends to x = 5

3) As stated in point 1) the point x = 2, we have 2 ≤ x and at point x = 5, we have x ≤ 5 which can be combined as  2 ≤ x < 5, to give;

[ 5 if x ∈ 2 ≤ x < 5.
