Question
### Graphical Analysis of a Function

#### Objective

Analyze the given graph of a function \( f \) and estimate the specified characteristics. (Enter your answers using interval notation.)

#### Graph Description

The graph presents a piecewise linear function \( f \) plotted on a set of axes with \( x \) and \( y \) coordinates. 

- **Axes Details:**
  - The x-axis and y-axis are marked with integer units.
  - The x-axis ranges from approximately -2 to 4.
  - The y-axis ranges from approximately -2 to 2.

- **Graph Data Points:**
  1. Starts at approximately (-2, 2)
  2. Goes down to (-1, -1)
  3. Rises to (0, 0)
  4. Falls to (1, -2)
  5. Rises to (2, 1)
  6. Ends at (3, 0)

#### Tasks:

(a) **The domain and range of \( f \):**

- **Domain:** The set of all possible \( x \)-values for which \( f \) is defined.

\[ \text{Domain: } \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \]

- **Range:** The set of all possible \( y \)-values that \( f \) can take.

\[ \text{Range: } \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \]

(b) **The intervals on which \( f \) is increasing and on which \( f \) is decreasing:**

- **Increasing Intervals:** The intervals where the value of \( f \) increases as \( x \) increases.

\[ \text{Increasing: } \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \]

- **Decreasing Intervals:** The intervals where the value of \( f \) decreases as \( x \) increases.

\[ \text{Decreasing: } \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \]
