You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1.For the piecewise function below, find the specific function values.
f(x)={3,for x<= -2}
{x/2+6,for x>-2}
f(-5), f(-2), f(0), and f(2)
..
f(x)={3,for x<= -2}
This is a horizontal line, y=3, Domain: (-∞,-2]
..
f(x)={x/2+6,for x>-2}
This is a straight line with a slope of 1/2 and y-intercept=6, Domain: (-2, ∞)
..
For x≤-2, use first equation, y=3
For x>-2, use second equation, x/2+6
..
f(-5)=3
f(-2)=3
f(0)=0/2+6=6
f(2)=2/2+6=1+6=7
