Both functions decrease at (-1, 2)
<h3>How to determine the decreasing intervals of the function?</h3>The complete question is added as an attachment
The polynomial function f(x) is represented by the graph.
From the graph, the polynomial function decreases at (-2, 2)
The absolute function is given as;
f(x) = =5|x + 1| + 10
The vertex of the above function is
Vertex = (-1, 10)
Because a is negative (a= -5), the vertex is a maximum.
This means that the function decreases at (-1, ∞)
So, we have
(-2, 2) and (-1, ∞)
Combine both intervals
(-1, 2)
This means that both functions decrease at (-1, 2)
See attachment 2 for the number line that represents the interval where both functions are decreasing

Answer:
The probability that exactly one of these mortgages is delinquent is 0.357.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that according to the Mortgage Bankers Association, 8% of U.S. mortgages were delinquent in 2011. A delinquent mortgage is one that has missed at least one payment but has not yet gone to foreclosure.
A random sample of eight mortgages was selected.
The above situation can be represented through Binomial distribution;
where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 8 mortgages
r = number of success = exactly one
p = probability of success which in our question is % of U.S.
mortgages those were delinquent in 2011, i.e; 8%
<em>LET X = Number of U.S. mortgages those were delinquent in 2011</em>
So, it means X ~
Now, Probability that exactly one of these mortgages is delinquent is given by = P(X = 1)
P(X = 1) =
=
= 0.357
<u><em>Hence, the probability that exactly one of these mortgages is delinquent is 0.357.</em></u>
