This is a step function

Mario Cantrell · Answer 2

A step function

Step-by-step explanation:

In a step function, the y-value remains constant for several values of x. The y-value then "steps" up for the next category with the next several values of x.

In this function, the y-value will be 3.5 for the x-values from 0 to 25.

The function then "steps" up to a y-value of 5.95 for the x values from 25.01 to 75.

The next "step" goes to a y-value of 7.95 for x-values from 75.01 to 125.

The last "step" goes to a y-value of 9.95 for x-values of 125.01 and up.
