On a coordinate plane, a graph of a floor function has horizontal segments that are each 1 unit long. The left end of each segment is a closed circle. The right end of each segment is an open circle. The left-most segment goes from (negative 5, negative 5) to (negative 4, negative 5). Each segment is 1 unit higher and 1 unit farther to the right than the previous segment. The right-most segment goes from (5, 5) to (6, 5). Use the graph of the floor function to complete the statements.

Over the interval
, y = 2.

For an input value of –1.5, the corresponding output value is

Over the interval x =  2≤ x <3, y = 2.  

For an input value of –1.5, the corresponding output value is -2

Step-by-step explanation: Easier to find the information of you make a sketch of the graph described. (Good description!)

To find the value, look at the graphed segments that correspond to the given values.

X represents input values, Y represents output values.
