-

• A) \(f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { c c } - 5 & \text { if } x < 1 \\ 3 & \text { if } x \geq 1 \end{array} \right.\); Domain: \(( - \infty , \infty )\), Range: \(\{ - 5,3 \}\)
• B) \(f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { c l } - 5 & \text { if } x \leq 1 \\ 3 & \text { if } x > 1 \end{array} \right.\); Domain: \(\{ - 5,3 \}\), Range: \(( - \infty , \infty )\)
• C) \(f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { c l } - 5 & \text { if } x < 1 \\ 3 & \text { if } x \geq 1 \end{array} ; \right.\) Domain: \(\{ - 5,3 \}\), Range: \(( - \infty , \infty )\)
• D) \(f ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { c c } - 5 & \text { if } x \leq 1 \\ 3 & \text { if } x > 1 \end{array} ; \right.\) Domain: \(( - \infty , \infty )\), Range: \(\{ - 5,3 \}\)
