The function is given to be:


f(x)=(2x+4)/(x-2)

The graph of the function is shown below:

On observation from the graph, we can see that the graph is decreasing along all intervals except at the asymptote:


x=2

Therefore, the intervals of decrease are:


(-\infty,2)\text{ }and\text{ }(2,\infty)

The correct options are the FIRST and FOURTH OPTIONS.
