The function 
is incresing and have positive values for all x. Then the function 
is also increasing and have positive values for all x. This means that options B (values are negative) and D (function is decreasing) are incorrect.
At x=0, 
.
In option A graph of the function passes through point (0,y), where y is near 3. In option C graph of the function passes through point (0,y), where y is near 1/5. So, you can conclude that the option C is correct.
The slope of the line that passes through those points is: B) -1/2
It is 8.7cm just trust me bro I got it right
