Answer:
2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
1) The graph consists of three horizontal segments, with discontinuities (jumps) at x = 1, x = 2, and x = 3.
A horizontal segment at y = - 2 for the values x = 0 to 1.
A horizontal segment at y = - 1 for values x = 1 to 2
A horizontal segment at y = 0 for values x - 2 to 3.
2) To know whether the end points of a segment are defined by the left or the right values you have to look for the circle at the extreme of the segment: if it is a solid dot, means that the end is included, if is is an open circle (white inside) then the end is not included in that segment.
3) That function is based on the function named integer part because if relates y with the integer part of x.
The integer value function is [x] and it makes correspond y values witht he integer values of x.:
y = 0 witht the integer value of x for x between 0 and 1, excluding 1.
y = 1 with the integer value of x between 1 and 2 (excluding 2)
y = 2 with the integer value of x between 2 and 3 (excluding 3)
y = 3 with the integer value of x between 3 and 4 (excluding 4)
But our function is two units below, so it is [x] - 2

5/6 = .83333333333333333333333333.... It goes on...
.833333333333333333 * 18 = 15
15 is your answer
Another way you could do it is 18/6 = 3
3+3+3+3+3 = 15
3 being 1/6th of 18 *Hope This Helps...*
