Problem 1
**Problem 1**: The graph on the left is of \( f(x) \). State the intervals of increasing and decreasing of \( f(x) \). The graph on the right is of \( g'(x) \). State the intervals of increasing and decreasing of \( g(x) \).

### Graph Descriptions:

#### Left Graph (\( f(x) \)):
- A continuous curve ranging approximately from \( x = -10 \) to \( x = 10 \).
- From \( x = -10 \) to about \( x = -2 \), the function is increasing.
- From \( x = -2 \) to \( x = 2 \), the function has a decreasing trend.
- From \( x = 2 \) to \( x = 10 \), the function increases again.

#### Right Graph (\( g'(x) \)):
- A continuous curve ranging approximately from \( x = -10 \) to \( x = 10 \).
- From \( x = -10 \) to about \( x = -3 \), the derivative \( g'(x) \) is negative, indicating \( g(x) \) is decreasing.
- From \( x = -3 \) to \( x = 0 \), \( g'(x) \) is positive, indicating \( g(x) \) is increasing.
- From \( x = 0 \) to approximately \( x = 2 \), the derivative is negative, suggesting \( g(x) \) is decreasing.
- From \( x = 2 \) to \( x = 10 \), the derivative is positive, indicating \( g(x) \) is increasing.
