Consider the graph of $y=f\left(x\right)$y=f(x), which is defined for all real $x$x.

Loading Graph...
A graph of a function is plotted on a Cartesian coordinate plane. A closed point $\left(4,-4\right)$(4,4) is plotted as a solid dot. To the left of $\left(4,-4\right)$(4,4), a straight horizontal line extends continuously to the left. An open point $\left(4,3\right)$(4,3) is plotted as a hollow dot. From $\left(4,3\right)$(4,3), a straight horizontal line extends continuously to the right. The coordinates of the points are not explicitly given or labeled on the graph.
