The decreasing interval of the parabola represented by the graph is (-∝, 3)

How to determine the decreasing interval of the parabola

from the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The parabola represented by the graph

From the graph, we have the following

Increasing interval = (3, ∝)

This is because the y values increase as x increase

Decreasing interval = (-∝, 3)

This is because the y values decrease as x increase

Hence, the decreasing interval is (-∝, 3)
