Take into account that the intervals of decrease is given by the values of x at which the curve of the function has a negative slopes in the tangent line on each point. It means that if x increases y descreases.

Then, based on the previous descriptions, you can notice that the given graph has the following interval of decrease:

(-0.5 , 0) and (2 , oo)
