Evaluate the piecewise function at the given values of the independent variable.


f(x) = { 4x+5 if x < 0
x+6 if x >= 0


(a) f(-1) (b) f(0) (c) f(2)

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) f(-1) = 1

b) f(0) = 6

c) f(2) = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is lesser than 0, we have that:

f(x) = 4x + 5

Otherwhise

f(x) = x + 6

(a) f(-1)

Here x = -1.

-1 is lesser than 0

Then

f(x) = 4x + 5

f(-1) = 4*(-1) + 5 = -4 + 5 = 1

(b) f(0)

Here x = 0

When x equals 0

f(x) = x + 6

Then

f(0) = 0 + 6 = 6

(c) f(2)

Here x = 2

When x = 2

f(x) = x + 6

Then

f(2) = 2 + 6 = 8
