Domain and Range of Piecewise Functions
Domain and Range of Piecewise Functions
Explore how different segments of a piecewise function define its domain and range.
Putting It All Together
Answer these open ended questions on your own or with others to form deeper math connections.
Open-ended question 1
In a graph of a piecewise function, some endpoints may be open and others closed. How is this reflected in the notation for the domain and range of a function?

Open-ended question 2
What key features of a piecewise function graph would you use to state the domain of the function? The range?
