Question Number 66116 by Rio Michael last updated on 09/Aug/19
Given that  f(x) =  { ((x,  for 0≤x<2)),((0, for 2≤x≤3)) :}  is periodic with period 3 units,  find the value of  f(5) and f(−5)  sketch the graph of f(x) for x between −3 and 6    please i really need explanations when solving the first part of the question  thanks

f(x)=f(x+3)=f(x−3) ∵f  is a periodic with 3 unit  ∵ f(5) = f(8) or f(2)= 0  and f(−5) = f(−2) or f(−8)= x=−5
$$\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}\right)=\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{3}\right)=\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{3}\right)\:\because\mathrm{f}\:\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{periodic}\:\mathrm{with}\:\mathrm{3}\:\mathrm{unit} \\ $$$$\because\:\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{5}\right)\:=\:\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{8}\right)\:\mathrm{or}\:\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{2}\right)=\:\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{f}\left(−\mathrm{5}\right)\:=\:\mathrm{f}\left(−\mathrm{2}\right)\:\mathrm{or}\:\mathrm{f}\left(−\mathrm{8}\right)=\:\mathrm{x}=−\mathrm{5} \\ $$

but i dont the fact that   f(x+3)=f(x−3) why ?  and your solving
$${but}\:{i}\:{dont}\:{the}\:{fact}\:{that}\: \\ $$$${f}\left({x}+\mathrm{3}\right)={f}\left({x}−\mathrm{3}\right)\:{why}\:? \\ $$$${and}\:{your}\:{solving} \\ $$

∵ it is a periodic funtion of 3 unit it will repeat itself  after or before every 3 unit.  that is why f(x−3),f(x),f(x+3) will have the  same value.
$$\because\:\mathrm{it}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{periodic}\:\mathrm{funtion}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{3}\:\mathrm{unit}\:\mathrm{it}\:\mathrm{will}\:\mathrm{repeat}\:\mathrm{itself} \\ $$$$\mathrm{after}\:\mathrm{or}\:\mathrm{before}\:\mathrm{every}\:\mathrm{3}\:\mathrm{unit}. \\ $$$$\mathrm{that}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{why}\:\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{3}\right),\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}\right),\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{3}\right)\:\mathrm{will}\:\mathrm{have}\:\mathrm{the} \\ $$$$\mathrm{same}\:\mathrm{value}. \\ $$
