1

Understand the problem

Find the intervals of increase and decrease of the function:

y=211x2+3 y=2\sqrt{11}x^2+3

2

Step-by-step solution

The function y=211x2+3 y = 2\sqrt{11}x^2 + 3 is a quadratic function with a=211 a = 2\sqrt{11} . Since a>0 a > 0 , the parabola opens upwards.

This implies the parabola decreases on the interval (,0) (-\infty, 0) and increases on the interval (0,) (0, \infty) .

The vertex of this parabola is at x=0 x = 0 because there is no linear term (b=0 b = 0 ). Thus, the parabola is:

:x<0\searrow: x < 0

:x>0\nearrow: x > 0

Therefore, the intervals are correctly described by choice 4:
:x<0:x>0 \searrow: x < 0\\\nearrow: x > 0

3

Final Answer

:x<0:x>0 \searrow:x<0\\\nearrow:x>0
