Answer

(a) $f(-2)=6$ (b) $f(0)=2$ (c) $f(1)=3$ (d) $f(s^2+2)=2s^4+8s^2+10$ Domain: All real numbers Range: $[2, \infty)$

Work Step by Step

(a) $f(-2)=(-2)^2+2$, since $-2\leq 1$ $f(-2)=6$ (b) $f(0)=(0)^2+2$, since $0\leq1$ $f(0)=2$ (c) $f(1)=(1)^2+2$, since $1\leq1$ $f(1)=3$ (d) $f(s^2+2)=2(s^2+2)^2+2$, since $s^2+2>1$ $f(s^2+2)=2(s^4+4s^2+4)+2$ $f(s^2+2)=2s^4+8s^2+10$ Domain: All real numbers Range: $[2, \infty)$
