Help with functions right quick? :) please

Answer 1

The answer is:  [B]:  -4  .
_____________________________
Here is the problem:
_____________________
 "Find f(3)."
_______________________
    f(x) = $\left \{ {x + 5 ; if x \ \textless \ -2 ; \atop {-4; if x \geq -2 ;}} \right.$ ;
______________________________________
Since we are asked to find:  " f(3)" ;  we consider the number, "3", which is GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO "-2" ; (that is,  " 3 $\geq$ -2" ;
 and f(x) = -4  if x $\geq$  -2 . 
_____________________________________________________
So, in this case, f(x) = f(3) =  -4 ; which is: "Answer choice: [B] ".
