Question

graph the function and identify intervals on which the function is increasing, decreasing, or constant.

select all intervals for which the function is decreasing. select all that apply.

a. (-∞, 3.49)
b. (1.99, ∞)

c. (-2.49, 3.49)

d. (3.49, ∞)

e. (-∞, -4.99

f. (-3.49, 4.99)

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the graph

A function is decreasing when, as \(x\) increases, \(y\) decreases.

Step2: Identify the interval

Looking at the graph, the function is decreasing in the interval \((- 0.49,1.49)\) (approximate values based on the graph's turning points).

Answer:

C. \((-0.49,1.49)\)
