Express the function graphed on the axes below as a piecewise function.

y = 2/3x +6  for x< -3

y = 2/3x +1     for x> 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is a line for  x < -3

( - 6,2) and ( -3,4)

The slope is m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = ( 4-2)/(-3 - -6) = 2/ ( -3+6) = 2/3

The slope is 2/3

Using point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)  and the point ( -6,2)

y -2 = 2/3(x - -6)

y -2 = 2/3(x +6)

y-2 = 2/3 x +4

y = 2/3x +6 x< -3

The graph is a line for  x > 3

(3,3) and ( 6,5)

The slope is m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = ( 5-3)/(6-3) = 2/ (3) = 2/3

The slope is 2/3

Using point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)  and the point (6,5)

y -5 = 2/3(x - 6)

y-5 = 2/3 x -4

y = 2/3x +1   x> 3

an advantage of the standard deviation is that it increases as the dispersion of the data increases. e. the interquartile range is preferred when the data are not skewed or no have outliers. an advantage of the standard deviation is that it uses all the observations in its computation.

x² + 11x + 18 < 0  

[-11 ± sqrt(121 - 72)]/2 = (-11 ± 7)/2  

solution: (-9, -2)
