Let . Evaluate: a. (i) b. (ii)Intuitive explanation
The key is to recognize that the floor function and absolute value behave differently on different intervals, so you'll need to split the domain into cases. On any interval where is an integer, is constant, but changes its form at . By carefully evaluating on each relevant piece, you'll see a piecewise pattern emerge that makes the evaluation straightforward.
