Question

find f(3) for the piece-wise function.

\\f(x) = \

$$\begin{cases} x - 2, & x < 3 \\\\ x - 1, & x \\ge 3 \\end{cases}$$

\\

\\(f(3) = ? \\)

Explanation:

Determine the correct piece of the function

$$ x = 3 \implies x \ge 3 $$

Evaluate the selected expression

$$ f(3) = 3 - 1 = 2 $$

Answer:

Find \(f(3)\) for the piece-wise function.

$$f(x) =
