We have
$$f(x) = \chi_{[0,1)}(x) + x^2(1+x)\chi_{[1,2)}(x) + 17\chi_{[2,\infty)}(x). $$
The Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure associated with $f$ is defined by
$$\mu(E) = \int_E \mathsf df, \ E\in\mathcal B(\mathbb R)$$
where the integral is interpreted as a Stieltjes integral.
Note that $f$ has three jump discontinuities:
\begin{align}
\Delta_0 := f(0)-f(0-) &= 1-0 = 1\\
\Delta_1 := f(1)-f(1-) &= 2-1 = 1\\
\Delta_2 := f(2)-f(2-) &= 17-12 = 5.
\end{align}
It follows that the Lebesgue decomposition of $\mu$ is $\mu = \mu_a + \mu_d$ where
$$\mu_a(E) = \int_{E\ \cap\ (1,2)} f'(x) \mathsf dx, $$
and
$$\mu_d(E) = \Delta_0\chi_E(0) + \Delta_1\chi_E(1) + \Delta_2\chi_E(2) $$
are the absolutely continuous and discrete parts of $\mu$, respectively. It is clear that $\mu_a\perp\mu_d$ and $\mu_a\ll m$.
The distribution function of $\mu$ is $F(x) = \mu((-\infty,x])$. $F$ is a càdlàg function, and is similar in nature to a cumulative distribution function of a random variable. In fact, since $F\geqslant 0$ and
\begin{align}
\lim_{x\to\infty}F(x) &= (F(0) - F(0-)) + (F(1) - F(1-))\\ &\quad+ (F(2-) - F(1)) + (F(2) - F(2-))\\
&= \Delta_0 +\Delta_1 + \int_1^2 (2x+3x^2)\,\mathsf dx +\Delta_2\\
&= 1 + 1 + 10 + 5\\
&= 17,
\end{align}
we see that $\nu:=\frac1{17}\mu$ is a probability measure on $\mathbb R$.
Edit: A technical detail. The condition $\mu=\mu_a+\nu$ where $\mu_a\ll m$ and $\mu_a\perp\nu$ does not imply that $\nu$ is a discrete measure, i.e. $\nu$ need not be concentraed on a countable set. In full generality, $\nu = \nu_d + \nu_{sc}$ where $\nu_d$ is a discrete measure and $\nu_{sc}$ is a singular measure. That is, $\nu_{sc}$ is concentrated on a set of Lebesgue measure zero, but $\nu_{sc}(\{x\})=0$ for all $x\in\mathbb R$. In this example, $\mu$ has no singular part, since the set on which $F$ is not absolutely continuous is precisely the set of point masses of $\mu$.
