Answer:
Option (1)
Step-by-step explanation:
In the graph attached,
There are three intervals of the function graphed.
1st interval → -∞ < x < -3
2nd interval → -3 ≤ x ≤ 2
3rd interval → 2 < x < ∞
In the 1st interval, value of the function is constant. [represented by a straight horizontal line]
In the second interval, line graphed is slanting down. (slope of the line is negative).
Therefore, value of the function is decreasing in -3 ≤ x ≤ 2
In 3rd interval, slope of the line is positive. Therefore, function is increasing in the 3rd interval.
Option (1) will be the answer.
