Final Answer: $x$ has $d e c r e a s e d$ .

Steps

Step 1 ：Suppose the value of $x$ varies from $x = - 4$ to $x = - 10$ .

Step 2 ：Compare the initial and final values of $x$ .

Step 3 ：If the final value is less than the initial value, then $x$ has decreased. If the final value is greater than the initial value, then $x$ has increased.

Step 4 ：The final value of $x$ is less than the initial value, so $x$ has decreased.

Step 5 ：Final Answer: $x$ has $d e c r e a s e d$ .

Suppose the value of x varies from x=−4 to x=−10.a. Did x increase or decrease? Select an answer ∨b. If x continues varying in this direction without limit, which of the following is true? Select all that apply.x→∞x increases without boundx decreases without boundx→−∞
