Express as a piecewise function. y = |x^2 + 2x – 8|
y = |x^2 + 2x – 8|
This can be expressed as a piecewise function as follows:
For x^2 + 2x – 8 < 0:
y = -(x^2 + 2x – 8)
For x^2 + 2x – 8 ≥ 0:
y = x^2 + 2x – 8
This can be expressed as a piecewise function as follows:
For x^2 + 2x – 8 < 0:
y = -(x^2 + 2x – 8)
For x^2 + 2x – 8 ≥ 0:
y = x^2 + 2x – 8
