Let's look at each function and what it looks like when $\"x%3C2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%5B1%5D=abs%28x-3%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%5B1%5D=-%28x-3%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%5B1%5D=-x%2B3\"$
\n" ); document.write( ",
\n" ); document.write( ",
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%5B2%5D=abs%28x%2B2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%5B2%5D=-%28x%2B2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%5B2%5D=-x-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( ",
\n" ); document.write( ",
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%5B3%5D=abs%28x-5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%5B3%5D=-%28x-5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y%5B3%5D=-x%2B5\"$
\n" ); document.write( ",
\n" ); document.write( ",
\n" ); document.write( "So then,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=y%5B1%5D%2By%5B2%5D%2By%5B3%5D\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=-x%2B3-x-2-%28-x%2B5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=-x-4\"$ when $\"x%3C-2\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
