Sketch the graph of the piecewise function
State the domain and range of
. Consider the domain and range of each piece separately . Then combine.
Domain: Bothand have a domain of all real numbers.
Range:on has a range of and on has a range of . Is
continuous at ? Explain. Later in this course we will learn a formal definition of continuity. For now, think about what continuous means to you. Now look at the graph at
. Make a conclusion and justify. Is
continuous on all values of ? Consider other values of
, other than . Is the function continuous at these point? Is there anywhere where the function will not be continuous?
