A piecewise function is defined by multiple sub-functions, each applicable to a specific interval or condition of the independent variable. Its characteristics include distinct segments of the graph, which can have different slopes, shapes, or behaviors, depending on the defined intervals. The function may have discontinuities at the boundaries where the pieces meet, and it can be defined using linear, quadratic, or other types of functions within its segments. Overall, piecewise functions are useful for modeling situations where a rule changes based on the input value.
What else can I help you with?
Describe the defining characteristics of piecewise functions?
A piecewise defined function is a function which is defined symbolically using two or more formulas
What is piecewise smooth function?
f is a piecewise smooth funtion on [a,b] if f and f ' are piecewise continuous on [a,b]
When finding the derivative of a point on a piecewise function does every function in the piecewise function need to be continuous and approach the same limit?
All differentiable functions need be continuous at least.
How are piecewise functions related to step functions and absolute value functions?
A piecewise function is a function defined by two or more equations. A step functions is a piecewise function defined by a constant value over each part of its domain. You can write absolute value functions and step functions as piecewise functions so they're easier to graph.
What does a solid dot mean on a piecewise function represent?
It could represent a point whose coordinates do satisfy the requirements of the function.

Is a piecewise function one to one?
A piecewise function can be one-to-one, but it is not guaranteed to be. A function is considered one-to-one if each element in the domain maps to a unique element in the range. In the case of a piecewise function, it depends on the specific segments and how they are defined. If each segment of the piecewise function passes the horizontal line test, then the function is one-to-one.

Do you connect points for a piecewise function?
yes :D
Which function is used to model overtime pay?
Piecewise <3
What is a piece-wise function?
for a piecewise function, the domain is broken into pieces, with a different rule defining the function for each piece
What does a solid dot mean on a piecewise function represent?
It could represent a point whose coordinates do satisfy the requirements of the function.
Write a equation for piecewise function?
slope 5/6 through (-18,6)
How do you graph and evaluate piecewise functions?
Graph each "piece" of the function separately, on the given domain.
