PIECEWISE LINEAR FUNCTIONS

INVESTIGATION 1: Finding the domain and range of piecewise linear functions

To investigate finding the domain and range of piecewise linear functions using a Geometer's Sketch Pad activity click HERE. Four functins are depicted.

Activity 1: Find the domain and range of each piecewise linear function.
