Using function concepts, it is found that it is increasing on the interval:
(–∞, –5] ∪ [3, ∞)
---------------
The function is given by:

The graph is given at the end of this question.
- If the function is pointing upwards, it is increasing. Otherwise, it is decreasing.
- In the graph, it can be seen that it is pointing upwards for x of -5 and less, or 3 and higher, thus, the interval is:
(–∞, –5] ∪ [3, ∞)

Answer:
3/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Theres 12 possibilities and she has 3 numbers which means each number has a 1 out of 12 chance of winning the prize. Molly has three numbers so she has a probability of 3/12 to win a prize.
The fencing line x is the height of a rectangle triangle of base = y, hypothenuse of 9 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:
hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
9^2 = x^2 + y^2
x^2 = 81 - y^2
we can see that x is also the height of another rectangle triangle of base = 15 - y, hypothenuse of 12 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:
hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
12^2 = x^2 + (15 - y)^2
lets expand:
144 = x^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2
substitute x^2 from the first equation in the last:
144 = 81 - y^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2
144 = 81 + 225 - 30y
30y = -144 + 81 + 225
y = 5.4 m
substitute in the fence equation:
x^2 = 81 - y^2
x^2 = 81 - 5.4^2
x = 7.2 m that is the length of the fence
The 3 in 350 is in the hundred place and in 403 the 3 is in the ones place
