The graph of the function f(x) = –(x + 6)(x + 2) is shown below. Which statement about the function is true? The function is inc
reasing for all real values of x where x < –4. The function is increasing for all real values of x where –6 < x < –2. The function is decreasing for all real values of x where x < –6 and where x > –2. The function is decreasing for all real values of x where x < –4.
1 answer:
From the attached graph, we see that
f(x) is increassing in (- ∞ , -4), and
f(x) is decreasing in ( -4, ∞ )
therefore
The function is increasing for all real values of x where x < –4. TRUE
<span>The function is increasing for all real values of x where –6 < x < –2. (FALSE, f(x) is positive in this range)
</span><span>The function is decreasing for all real values of x where x < –6 and where x > –2. (FALSE, f(x) is negative in this range)
</span><span>The function is decreasing for all real values of x where x < –4. (FALSE, f(x) is decreasing ∀ x>-4</span>

Answer:
y = x - 5
y = 2x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
In linear equations, both variables x and y must have the exponent of 1 (i.e. they cannot have a small number at the top-right). And they cannot be in the exponents (i.e. cannot be the small number at the top-right).
