Find the Formula for a Piecewise Function from Graph

Thanks to all of you who support me on Patreon. You da real mvps! $1 per month helps!! :) / patrickjmt !! Find the Formula for a Piecewise Function from Graph.
In this video, I give a graph, and show how to produce the piecewise defined function that would describe that graph!

This is basically 45 minutes worth of my hard algebra class shortened into about 8 minutes of an easy explanation of the exact same thing

[@rebekahhernandez7520]

who else is here because there math teacher goes over the material in class way to fast

[@potatogamer7086]

lmaoo me
:)

[@claytonmoore3027]

Yes sir 😂

[@rxn51]

Mine doesn't go over it at all :(

[@christlnee]

Me

[@rxn51]

@@christlnee how is this 24 years ago?

[@marcosvazquez5512]

good stuff man i would rather pay you than my brain dead math teacher.

[@fredwilson1448]

you pay your math teacher?

[@Rabisoul]

Pretty sure he's talking about indirectly through tuition, but yea I got the joke lol

[@EG0prime]

It's just stupid how much more I learn from your videos than I do in class. I have had to take math, something I utterly loathe, a lot because of my degree and I kept coming back to your videos. May you live forever on the internet :)

[@DaK1ller]

I’m here watching before I fail my math test lmao

[@iSadiee14]

You just saved me and my grade on my Alg 2 project. Bless your soul, Patrick. Consider me subscribed.

[@samipixel3272]

You sir, are a life saver :D Hopefully going to pass my test.

[@pyrodoxnx3312]

Did you pass it?

[@keithhudson3138]

This is damn-near the same exact problem where I found you for help. The TH-cam math gods were looking down. Thank you so, so much.

[@patrickjmt]

@Aslan77728 that is the slope of a line, you are correct. not sure where i violate that though.

[@celestial4646]

You're so good at breaking down the problem for me to understand. Thank you!

[@caswilso]

Thanks so much for your videos. My pre-cal teacher is THE worst teacher ever. These are super helpful!

[@arobot14ftw]

Wow, a Piecewise video that actually made sense. You saved my life and my grade. Keep up the good work.

[@makkam999]

get well soon homie.. (even though this vid is from 2008 so I'm assuming you did)

[@patrickjmt]

still kickin'...

[@euphoniumrulez]

Thank you SOOOO much! I was absent this week because I was sick and this helped me understand this function better than if I had been at school!
Great Teaching!

[@patrickjmt]

@Alexvreidy anytime !

[@bananers16]

ah you are a life saver! i really needed this, i was getting so depressed because i couldn't figure out how to do this. much better explained than my professor!!! thank you so much again! :D

[@SinaBeast]

I just really wanted to thank you for all that you do in general it really has helped me out a lot. I have a test tomorrow with this being a main portion of it and up until now i didn't really understand how to do it. Once again thank you and i know i will be using your video's again someday haha

[@lahapuca27]

Thank you sooooooo much. Reading the explanation of it in a book just confused me, but here I understand everything so simply. Thanks again.

[@RohilThopu]

You explained this so much more thoroughly than my accel math teacher. thank you so much!

[@vincepalaa]

Bro, you just saved me hours of staring a piecewise functions. Easy explanation. Thanks!

[@93631Dude]

Helped with my High School AP Calculus homework, thanks.

[@godaniela]

Thank you so much! This video helped a lot for my assignment that I didn't get at all. You are a life savior! :)

[@AvareKotenok]

god these are hard- ty so much for the video. i was so frustrated trying to figure out how to translate line segments and this is exactly what i needed.

[@longinusher4853]

Thank you so much for your wonderful explanation!!

[@itskristii]

this is amazinggg! my teacher is awful and this helped me so much. thank you!!!!

[@mrhefner01]

I could learn calculus in a weekend with you as my teacher! Why cant teachers explain things so vividly thanks

[@patrickjmt]

@RallySlotUs you are very welcome

[@nicolespalace]

Thanks so much! My instructor expected us to know this and yet he never gave any indication. Thanks so much.

[@rahrahritaa]

thank you!! my calc professor considered this a "review" so he flew through it. i understood this in high school calculus but now it's like this is totally new to me D:

[@girlofthebutterflies]

Thank you so much for this video, it has really helped me get ready for my final exam!

[@patrickjmt]

oh yea! glad to help my friends!

[@MsCokalola]

Thanks patrick, im a 9th grader taking honors algebra 2 and this helped me sooo much, you have no idea :D

[@727cutdogg]

Finally!!! I just couldn't figure this out.. until now, of course. Thanks!

[@TNTMay]

You're amazing that last example I couldn't find any videos on

[@khaled3248]

He ain't the best he IS THE MAN

[@thevballchic2015]

Thank you! I have a project where we have to graph our initials and have to use at least 4 different functions and I was so confused on how to graph an F with a step function because I thought it was wrong. Thanks for helping

[@xmrsjosephadamjonasx]

YES! thank uyou so much. I have a really horrible math teacher and I was lost until I saw this! Thank you!

[@mirisha100]

my precalculus professor needs to take some lessons from you..thanks for sharing..

[@ffrisch2]

thanks man, you save me. i have a chinese teacher i couldn't even understand him. and you make it so much easier

[@patrickjmt]

@lilghost121 i have one, it is the ' greatest integer function ' video

[@bpu23]

Thank you very much. You saved my little sister's algebra grade :)

[@SunGawdNika]

You dont know how much you've helped right now. Thank you so much!

[@Mngbbstar]

Thank you so much, I understood it better than I did in class

Great video that I will be adding to my notes....Thanks again!

[@lilghost121]

Great video, you teach better than my algebra 2 honors teacher. Can you make a step function tutorial video?

[@tritruong5656]

I completely understood it!

[@andy120692]

hey, patrick your videos are great.. they are straight forward and clear.. I see that lots of people agree with me too
Lol now I think it's easier to learn over youtube than from my math teacher.. haha

[@Rabisoul]

I always accidentally call it a Piece One function in class, thinking about One Piece. And I never even watched the damn show 😂

[@spalomin0]

I get it!! Thank you for explaining things so clearly.

[@MathHelpAdvanced]

Thanks um I was wondering whether you have videos based on the binomial theorem?

[@patrickjmt]

@misirlou234 glad i was able to help : )

[@ellaahanene2189]

During this crazy time I have to take precalculus online this video is a savior!

[@patrickjmt]

come back any time! i got a million and one videos and almost everything in precalc should be covered

[@laminmcamara6122]

Thanks for the lecture sir I like it

[@PlanBbaker0]

dude thanks for the help! i actually understand this now!

[@akrapovix6614]

Very good video. Thanks

[@ImJayceeYO]

For the open circle, what makes a point "not included in the graph"?

[@carina0018]

thank you so much for this! but could you please, also make an example where there is a function for a parabola. thanks! and how you'll plot the parabola in the graph.

[@jensensometimezshia]

Thank you so much!! you legit saved my life

[@frickencostarican]

How come in my classs (for the little v graph thing) when writing a definition, I have to include the orgin? For example, it would be f(x){ -2

[@Sasukelover408]

thank you sooo much for your help!!!

[@Outdoorsman417]

thanks a lot.
keep up with the vids.

i already have : graphing a piecewise function , or something like that is the name

[@scottysonn24]

Very Helpful!

[@tekken446]

how do you find the equation if you have a fraction as the y-intercept?(how should i find the y-int. in this case)
