Question
Suppose that the function g is defined, for all real numbers, as follows.
g(x) =
2 if x ≤ -2
x - 2 if -2 < x < 1
2 + 14x if 1 ≤ x
Find g(-5), g(-2), and g(-1).
Solution
The function g is defined in three parts, so we need to determine which part of the function to use for each value of x.
-
For g(-5), we use the first part of the function because -5 is less than 2. So, g(-5) = -5 + 2 = -3.
-
For g(-2), we use the second part of the function because -2 is equal to 2. So, g(-2) = -2^2 - 1 = -4 - 1 = -5.
-
For g(-1), we use the third part of the function because -1 is greater than 2. So, g(-1) = -1^2 = 1.
So, g(-5) = -3, g(-2) = -5, and g(-1) = 1.
