What is a piecewise function?

Back

A piecewise function is a function that is defined by different expressions or formulas for different parts of its domain.

How do you evaluate a piecewise function at a specific point?

Back

To evaluate a piecewise function at a specific point, determine which piece of the function applies to that point based on its domain restrictions.

What is the domain of a function?

Back

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values) for which the function is defined.

What is the range of a function?

Back

The range of a function is the set of all possible output values (y-values) that the function can produce.

What is the significance of domain restrictions in piecewise functions?

Back

Domain restrictions in piecewise functions determine which input values are valid for each piece of the function.
