3-65.

Given the function below, answer the following questions.

Piecewise graph labeled, left piece, ray from open point, (0, comma 2), passing through (negative 2, comma 0), right piece, parabola, vertex at (2, comma negative 4), starting at closed point (0, comma 0), & passing through (4, comma 1).

  1. Find the piecewise defined function that will generate the graph of .

    Use the vertex  to help find the equation of the parabola.

  2. Sketch the graph of .

    Piecewise graph labeled, g of x, left piece, ray from open point, (negative 2, comma 3), passing through (negative 5, comma 0), right piece, parabola, vertex at (0, comma negative 3), starting at closed point (negative 2, comma 1), & passing through (2, comma 1).
