Answer from: julie426

The second graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first piece of the piecewise function is g(x) = -2x, and it is on the part of the domain defined by x < -2. This means that the point at -2 will not be filled in, since it is strictly less than and not less than or equal to. It also means that the graph will be a line with a slope of -2 from this point backward; this means going backward, the graph will go up two and backward 1.

The second piece of the piecewise function is g(x) = -x². This will be an upside-down parabola (u-shaped graph) that passes through (-1, 1), (0, 0) and (1, -1). It is for the piece of the domain including -2 and going up to but not including 1; this means the left endpoint will be filled in and the right will not.

The third piece of the piecewise function is g(x) = x. This is a straight line with a slope of 1, meaning it goes up 1 and over 1. It is for the part of the domain including 1 and going to the right. This means the endpoint will be filled in.

The second graph is the correct match for the piecewise defined function $g\left(x\right)=\left\{ \begin{gathered} - 2x,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,x$ .

Further explanation:

Given:

The given piecewise-defined function is $g\left(x\right)=\left\{ \begin{gathered} - 2x,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,x$ .

Calculation:

The given function is defined as $g\left(x\right)=-2x$ for , $g\left( x \right) =- {x^2}$ for $-2\leq x$ and $g\left( x \right)=x$ for $x\geq1$ .

Therefore, the function is defined over the interval $\left( { - \infty ,\infty }\right)$ .

In the interval $\left( {-\infty ,-2} \right)$ function is a line $g\left( x \right)=-2x$ , over the interval $\left[ {-2,1} \right)$ function gives a parabola $g\left( x \right) =-{x^2}$ and over the interval $\left[ {1,\infty } \right)$ function gives another line as $g\left( x \right)=x$ .

Choose the values of which lies in the interval $\left( {-\infty ,-2} \right)$ and draw a graph for $g\left( x \right) =-2x$ .

Choose the values of which lies in the interval $\left[ {-2,1} \right)$ and draw a graph for $g\left( x \right) =-{x^2}$ .

Again choose the values of which lies in the interval $\left( { -\infty ,- 2} \right)$ and draw a graph for $g\left( x \right) =x$ .

The table for the values of and the corresponding values the function $g\left( x \right) =-2x$ is shown below in Table 1.

The table for the values of and the corresponding values the function $g\left( x \right) =-{x^2}$ is shown below in Table 2.

The table for the values of and the corresponding values the function $g\left( x \right) = x$ is shown below in Table 3.

Now the graph of piecewise-defined function $g\left(x\right)=\left\{ \begin{gathered} - 2x,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,x$ is sketched in Figure 1.

Thus, the second graph is the correct match for the piecewise defined function $g\left(x\right)=\left\{ \begin{gathered} - 2x,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,x$ .
