The piecewise-function f of x has opposite expressions. f of x is equal to 2 x minus 1 when x is less than 0; f of x is equal to 0 when x is equal to 0; f of x is equal to negative 2 plus 1 when x is greater 0 Which is the graph of f of x ?

A
Image with description On a coordinate plane, a piecewise function has 2 lines. The first line goes down through (negative 1 comma 3) to a open circle at (0 comma 1). The second line has a closed circle at (0 comma negative 1) and goes up through (2 comma 3).
B
Image with description On a coordinate plane, a piecewise function has 2 lines. The first line goes up from (negative 2 comma negative 5) to a circle at (0 comma negative 1). The second line has a closed circle at (0 comma 1) and goes down through (2 comma negative 3).
C
Image with description On a coordinate plane, a piecewise function has 2 lines. The first line goes through (negative 3 comma 4) and goes down to a circle at (negative 1 comma 0). The second line has a closed circle at (1 comma 0) and goes up through (3 comma 4).
D
Image with description On a coordinate plane, a piecewise function has 2 lines. The first line goes up through (negative 3 comma negative 4) to a circle at (0 comma 2). The second line has a closed circle at (0 comma 2) and goes down through (3 comma negative 4).
