One spring day, Parker noted the time of day and the temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit. His findings are as follows: At 6 a. m., the temperature was 52° F. For the
next 2 hours, the temperature rose 4° per hour. For the next 5 hours, it rose 1° per
hour. The temperature then stayed steady until 6 p. m. For the next 2 hours, the
temperature dropped 3° per hour. The temperature then dropped steadily until the
temperature was 57° at midnight. On the set of axes below, graph Parker's data.

Using the graph you should understand

if x = 1, then the answer is 3.5

step-by-step explanation:

y = | -2(-2) |     →     y = | 4 |     →     y = 4       ⇒   (-2, 4)

y = | -2(-1) |     →     y = | 2 |     →       y =   2       ⇒   (-1, 2)    

y = | -2(0) |     →     y = | 0 |     →       y = 0         ⇒   (0, 0)

y = | -2(1) |   c →     y = | -2 |     →     y =   2         ⇒   (1, 2)    

y = | -2(2) |     →     y = | - 4 |     →     y =   4         ⇒   (2, 4)
