The piecewise function f(x) is defined below. what is the value of f(1)? mc012-1.jpg f(1) = –2 f(1) = –1 f(1) = 2 f(1) = 3

Given the piecewise function f(x) is defined below
 

In the piecewise function, we use the top function, when x has a value from -4 to 1, 1 not included. We use the middle function when x has a value from 1 to 2, 2 not included. And we use the bottom function when x has a value of 2 and above.

Therefore, to find f(1), we make use of the middle function.
