Concept
Find the equation of line for the second line.
x1 = -2 y1 = 1
x2 = -4 y2 = 2
Next, apply equation of a line formula
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1\text{ }}\text{ = }\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ \frac{y\text{ - 1}}{x\text{ + 2}}\text{ = }\frac{2\text{ - 1}}{-4\text{ + 2}} \\ \frac{y\text{ - 1}}{x\text{ + 2}}\text{ = }\frac{1}{-2} \\ -2(y\text{ - 1) = 1(x + 2)} \\ -2y\text{ + 2 = x + 2} \\ -2y\text{ = x} \\ y\text{ = }\frac{-1}{2}x \end{gathered}[/tex]
Final answer
The graphed as a piecewise function is given below
