The document covers precalculus concepts related to graphs of functions including finding domains and ranges, graphing piecewise defined functions, determining if functions are even, odd or neither, finding inverses of functions, and graphing functions with given properties.

The main types of problems covered include finding domains and ranges of functions, graphing piecewise defined functions, determining if functions are even, odd or neither, finding inverses of functions, constructing functions with given domains, evaluating composite functions, and graphing functions with given properties.

Some examples of piecewise defined functions given are f(x) = 0 if x < 0, f(x) = 2x if x ≥ 0 and g(x) = 0 if x < 3, g(x) = e^x if x ≥ 3.
