A graph shows an x- and y-axis. The data line is in the shape of a "vee." The begins above the x-axis and to the left of the y-axis, extends below the x-axis to a point on the y-axis, and ascends above the x-axis to the right of the y-axis. Which statement describes the relationship between x and y? As x increases, y decreases. As x increases, y increases. As x increases, y increases and then decreases. As x increases, y decreases and then increases.

  As x increases, y decreases and then increases

Step-by-step explanation:

You need only understand your own description of the graph:

  begins above the x-axis, extends below the x-axis, and ascends above the x-axis

This is a description of decreasing, then increasing:

  As x increases, y decreases and then increases

answer: are you

step-by-step explanation:

- both graphs increase on their domain.

- the graphs of both functions have the same x-intercept.

- neither graph has a y-intercept.
