Question
Inspect the graph of the function to determine whether it is increasing or decreasing on the given interval.
f(x) = - 4x - 2 on (-o,00)
Choose the correct answer below.
O A. The function is decreasing on (- 0,00) because its graph is a line with a negative y-intercept.
O B. The function is increasing on (-o,0) because its graph is a line with negative slope.
O C. The function is decreasing on (- o,00) because its graph is a line with negative slope.
D. The function is increasing on (- 0,00) because its graph is a line with a negative y-intercept.
