Which function is graphed below?

Piecewise function;

y = 2x - 2 where x < 2

       4 where 2 ≤ x ≤ 5  

       y = x + 1 where x > 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Function graphed represents the piecewise function.

1). Equation of the line with y-intercept (-2) and slope 'm'.

 Since, slope of the line =

                                        =

                                        = 2

 Therefore, equation of this segment will be in the form of y = mx + b,

 ⇒ y = 2x - 2 where x < 2

2). Equation of a horizontal line,

 y = 4  where 2 ≤ x ≤ 5

3). Equation of the third line in the interval x > 5

 Let the equation of the line is,

 y = mx + b

 Where m = slope of the line

 b = y-intercept

 Here, slope 'm' =

                           =

                           = 1

 Equation of this line will be,

 y = 1(x) + b

 y = x + b

 Since, this line passes through (5, 6),

 6 = 5 + b

 b = 6 - 5 = 1

 Therefore, equation of this line will be,

 y = x + 1 where x > 5

 Graphed piecewise function is,

 y = 2x - 2 where x < 2

       4 where 2 ≤ x ≤ 5  

       y = x + 1 where x > 5
