Answer:

  • increasing: (-1, ∞)
  • decreasing: (-∞, -1)
  • constant: nowhere

Explanation:

A function is increasing when it is rising to the right. Here, that is everywhere right of x=-1.

A function is decreasing when it is falling to the right. Here, that is everywhere left of x=-1.

A function is constant when its graph is horizontal. There are no places on this graph like that.
