Piecewise Functions Quiz

The document describes 4 word problems that can be represented by piecewise functions. Each word problem involves costs that change depending on certain variables like number of days, attendees, passengers, or kilometers. The costs are represented as piecewise functions with different formulas applying over different ranges of the variables. Students are asked to write the piecewise functions to represent the costs in each situation.
