Answer: yes, because it is useful to describe changes in the behavior of the thing we are describing.

Step-by-step explanation:

A piecewise function f(x) is a function that is "different" depending on the range of the values of x, this is for example:

y = x -----> if x < 0

y = x^2 ----- if x ≥ 0

This is used to represent changes in the behavior of the thing we are describing.

For example, suppose an object that is moving with constant velocity, the velocity graph will be a constant line.

Now, the object suddenly, at a time t = t0 accelerates to a constant acceleration A, now the graph of the velocity is a linear graph with slope equal to A.

So this situation can be represent this with a piecewise function:

V(t) = c -----> if t < t0

V(t) = c + A*t -----> if t ≥ t0

So the answer is yes, we can.

Answer:

24  Domain: s>=2  or s<=-2

25. 3x^2 +14x +10

26. x^2 -2x+5  

Step-by-step explanation:

24.  Domain is the input or s values

square roots must be greater than or equal to zero

s^2-4 >=0

Add 4 to each side

s^2 >=4

Take the square root

s>=2  or s<=-2


25.  f(g(x))  stick g(x) into f(u) every place you see a u

f(u) = 3u^2 +2u-6

g(x) = x+2

f(g(x) = 3(x+2)^2 +2(x+2) -6

Foil the squared term

       = 3(x^2 +4x+4) +2x+4-6

Distribute

       = 3x^2 +12x+12 +2x+4-6

Combine like terms

   =3x^2 +14x +10


26 f(g(x))  stick g(x) into f(u) every place you see a u

f(u) = u^2+4

g(x) = x-1

f(g(x) = (x-1)^2 +4

Foil the squared term

         = (x^2 -2x+1) +4

         = x^2 -2x+5

Answer:

1 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2 2/3 - 1 1/6 = ?

The LCD here is 6.  Convert 2 2/3 so that the denominator is 6:

2 2/3 = 2 4/6

Then subtract 1 1/6 from 2 4/6:  We get 1 3/6, or 1 1/2
