The video tutorial explains piecewise functions, which can be represented graphically or algebraically. It describes how these functions are defined based on different conditions for the variable X. The tutorial provides examples using two functions, f and G, to demonstrate how to determine the function's value for specific X values. The key takeaway is understanding how to identify the correct piece of the function to use based on the value of X.

Why is it called a piecewise function?

• Because it is a single equation

• Because it has only one condition

• Because it is continuous

• Because it is defined in pieces
