Identify the vertex of the parabola
The graph shows a downward-opening parabola. The highest point (vertex) of this parabola is located at the coordinates \((1, 1)\).
Determine the interval where the function is increasing
A function is increasing on an interval if the \(y\)-values increase as the \(x\)-values increase from left to right. For this downward-opening parabola, the curve rises from left to right up to the \(x\)-coordinate of the vertex.
Match with the given options
The interval of increase is \(-\infty < x < 1\), which corresponds to the third option.
