Question

70 POINT!!!! PLS HELP!!!

Evaluate the piecewise function at the given value of the independent variable.

3x + 1 IF x < -1
F(x) =
-2x -5 IF x >_ -1

Determine F(2)


-9
-8
-3
1

​

Answer 1

Determine f(2).

Because 2>-1 we input 2 into every instance of x in the second function.

f(2)=-2(2)-5=-4-5=-9

answer: -9
