Consider the piecewise defined function and make observations about the graph. Part A: over what intervals is the function increasing?

Part B: over what intervals is the function decreasing?

Part C: what is the domain of the nonlinear piece

Part D: what is the domain of the linear function

Part E: what is the range of the function

Part F: does the graph represent a function.. Explain how you know

Part G: is this piecewise function continuous
