Based on the graphs of f (x) and g(x), in which interval(s) are both functions increasing?Polynomial function f of x, which increases from the left and passes through the point negative 4 comma negative 4 and goes to a local maximum at negative 3 comma 0 and then goes back down through the point negative 2 comma negative 2 to a local minimum at the point negative 1 comma negative 4 and then goes back up through the point 0 comma 0 to the right, and a rational function g of x with one piece that increases from the left in quadrant 2 asymptotic to the line y equals 1 passing through the points negative 6 comma 2 and negative 2 comma 6 that is asymptotic to the line x equals negative 1 and then another piece that increases from the left in quadrant 3 asymptotic to the line x equals negative 1 passing through the point 0 comma negative 4 and 4 comma 0 that is asymptotic to the line y equals 1(–°, –3) ∪ (–1, °)(–°, –3) ∪ (4, °)(–°, –3)(–°, °)

Both intervals are increasing through (-∞,-3) U (-1,∞)

Increasing intervals for f(x) and g(x); A function is incrasing when the y-value increases as the x-value increases.

f(x) and g(x) increases in two intervals (x-intervals):

From negative infinite to -3

From -1 to infinite


(-\infty,-3)\cup(-1,\infty)
