APEX PRE CALC: For a _ function, the domain is broken into pieces, with a different rule defining the function for each piece.

Piecewise

Step-by-step explanation:

For a piecewise function, the domain is broken into pieces, with a different rule defining the function for each piece.

Piecewise functions are usually a function that equals two or more equations depending on the x or the domain.

Google piecewise functions to see examples.

I hope this helps!

Piecewise

Step-by-step explanation:

There will be breaks and jumps in the curve, particularly when a value would undefined. So the solution curve looks like disconnected pieces.

the transverse axis of a hyperbola is the line that contains the two vertices and the two focuses.

in this example (hyperbola of equation x^2/2 - y^2/4 = 1), the transverse axis is the  x-axis  .
