Question
Express the function as a piecewise-defined function.
f(x) = -2 IxI
- f(x) : {(2x , x ≥ 0) , (-2x , x < 0)}
- f(x) : {( , x ≥ 0), (- , x < 0)}
- f(x) : {(-2x , x ≥ 0), (2x , x < 0)}
- f(x) : {(x , x ≥ 0), (-x , x < 0)}
Hint:
A piecewise-defined function is one that is defined not by a single equation, but by two or more. Each equation is valid for some interval.
We simply check the values of f(x) for different values of x and find out the corresponding piecewise-defined function f using function notation.
The correct answer is: f(x) : {(-2x , x ≥ 0), (2x , x < 0)}
Step 1 of 1:
For x = -2, f(x) = -2|-2| = -4
For x = -1, f(x) = -2|-1| = -2
For x = 0, f(x) = 0
For x = 1, f(x) = -2
For x = 2, f(x) = -4
Hence, we have f(x) : {(-2x, x ≥ 0), (2x, x < 0)}
Final Answer:
The right choice is- b. f(x) : {(-2x , x ≥ 0), (2x , x < 0)}
