Evaluating Piecewise Defined Functions

What is a piecewise defined function?

• A function that is always linear.

• A function defined by a single formula.

• A function that is a combination of multiple functions.

• A function that only has one condition.

What are the two main parts of a piecewise defined function?

• Formulas and variables

• Conditions and constants

• Formulas and conditions

• Variables and constants

What should you do after finding the true condition for a given x?

• Use the corresponding formula to evaluate the function.

• Ignore the condition and use any formula.

• Recalculate the conditions.

• Use the first formula in the list.
