Answer:
The function is increasing from x = 0 to x = 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
A <u>function</u> is increasing when the <u>y-value increases</u> as the <u>x-value increases</u>.
A <u>function</u> is decreasing when the <u>y-value decreases</u> as the <u>x-value increases</u>.
From x = -2 to x = -1 the function is decreasing as the y-value decreases as the x-value increases:
- x-value -2 to -1 → increase
- y-value 2 to 0 → decrease
From x = -1 to x = 0 the function is increasing as the y-value increases as the x-value increase:
- x-value -1 to 0 → increase
- y-value 0 to 2 → increase
From x = 0 to x = 1 the function is increasing as the y-value increases as the x-value increase:
- x-value 0 to 1 → increase
- y-value 2 to 8 → increase
Let Max be

years.
Then Lenny is

years
When we subtract Max's age from Lenny's age we obtain

This is equal to
Putting all together we have
Answer:
13.5% Decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
Use formula (change in value / original value) * 100
Change in value = 3.70 - 3.20 =0.50 Change in value is 0.50
Original Value = 3.70
Use the formula (0.50/3.70) * 100 = 13.5 % Decrease
