Not a robot! I don't think.
Y in the beginning goes up to 3.
Y in the end goes down to -2 before shooting back up in an infinite sense.
Increasing: The beginning and the end the line on the graph. (Also the jump in the middle, the round part.)
Decreasing: The middle of the graph. (The jump, downward slope.)
Constant, Y at the near end going in a straight line from 9-12 at a -2.
End behavior: Decide for yourself. Is the line going up without fault at the end an appearing continuous or a discontinuous line?
<span>-2x – 4 < 10
add 4 to both sides
-2x - 4 + 4 < 10 + 4
simplify
-2x < 14
divide both sides by -2
-2x/-2 < 14/-2
simplify
x < -7</span>
