Front

What is a piecewise function?

Back

A piecewise function is a function that is defined by different expressions or formulas for different intervals of the input variable.

Front

How do you evaluate a piecewise function?

Back

To evaluate a piecewise function, identify the interval that the input value falls into and use the corresponding expression to find the output.
