We consider the function when moving from left to right. So the first part, from x = -∞ to -2, is decreasing. The next part from -2 to 3 (exclusive) is constant. The last part, from 3 to ∞, is increasing.

(a)

Answer: A. The increasing interval is [3, ∞).

The bracket means 3 is included in the interval, closed on that side. It's open on the infinity side; infinity itself isn't really a number so not included in the range.

I'll guess the rest is:

(b)

Constant on the interval (-2,3).

That interval is open on both ends, so doesn't include -2 or 3.

(c)

Decreasing on the interval (-∞, -2].
