Answer 1

A) part of it is decreasing, part of it is increasing.  

Going left-to-right, the downhill/negative slope is the decreasing portion (x<-1) and the uphill/positive slope is the increasing portion (x>-1).  

B) The x-intercepts are the points where the graph intersects the x-axis: (2,0) and (-4,0).

C: The y-intercept is the point where the graph intersects the y-axis: (0,-2).

D: There is no absolute maximum.  The graph keeps going up forever.

E: The absolute minimum point is at that bottom, at (-1, -3).  The absolute minimum value is -3, since that's the lowest y-value used.
