Question

Determine the intervals on which the function is increasing, decreasing, and constant

Answer 1

I believe it's increasing on all fronts, because if you start from the right, you see that the y values always increase, hence they are increasing. They do it for when x<0 and when x>0. So, it should be increasing on all real numbers

Answer 2

Continuously increasing

Explanation:

Given is a graph of the function which shows a curve passing through 0, passing only in I and III quadrants.

It starts from bottom for low values of x, and slowly raise upto 0 and then again start raising.

This implies that gradient or slope of the function is positive and never negative or zero.

THis in turn implies that the curve is strictly increasing throughout its domain.
