A Piecewise Defined Function Example A function may employ different formulas on different parts of its domain. Such a function is said to be piecewise defined. For example, the function graphed has the following formulas: y y = x2 y = 6 - x x Functions Modeling Change: A Preparation for Calculus, 4th Edition, 2011, Connally
