Question

Which statement best describes the function represented by the graph?

A) The function is decreasing on the interval (-∝,0) and increasing on the interval (0,∝). B) The function is decreasing on the interval (∝,∝)
C) The function is increasing on the interval (∝, ∝).
D) The function is increasing on the interval (∝,0) and decreasing on the interval (0, ∝).

Answer 1

Answer:ANSWER

The function is decreasing on the interval,

Explanation:

To determine whether the function is decreasing or increasing, we trace the graph from left to right.

If the y-values are increasing as we move towards the right, then the function is increasing.

On the other hand, if the y-values are decreasing as we move towards the right, then the function is decreasing.

We can see from the graph that, the y-values decreases as we move from the left to the right.

Therefore, the function is decreasing for all real values of x.
