Step 1 
Consider the posed question
The two real-world uses of "piecewise functions," either explicitly or implicitly, that must be covered
First practical applications for "piecewise functions". 
A man started drive a car from his home. he travels 25 km in 1 hr after this go to office by bus which is ahead 10 km from the bus stop point. to reach the office from bus step it take 1 hr. 
The piecewise function is, in accordance with the preceding assertion
Let S represent the speed in km/hr and t represent the time in hrs. 
Speed = Distance / time 
Speed(S)={(25km/hr,0t1),(10km/hr,1t2)} 
Step 3 
Second practical applications for "piecewise functions". 
A man goes to the market to purchase the orange but on going there the shopkeeper told him that if you take more than 5 kg then the rate is 50 rs/kg otherwise is 70 rs/kg. 
Let r represent the rate in rs/kg and q represent the quantity in kg. 
rate(r)={(70rs/kg,0q5),(50rs/kg,q>5)}
