Question

D: the graph crosses the y-a is at (-6,0), decreasing from x=-10 to x=-2 and remaining constant from x=-2 to x=10.

Answer 1

Answer: Choice A) Graph crosses y axis at (0,-5), decreases from x = -10 to x = -2, constant from x = -2 to x = 10

--------------------------------------------------------

The statement "The graph crosses the y axis at (0,-5)" is a true statement because the red line crosses at -5 on the y axis. This allows us to rule out choice D. Choice C can be ruled out because the graph never increases. The graph would have to be moving uphill, as you read from left to right, to be increasing. Choice B is false because the junction point is at x = -2 and not x = 0.
