Determine the interval(s) on which the function is (strictly) decreasing.

Decreasing function: a function whose value decreases as the independent variable increases over given range.( then graph move downwards direction then graph is decreasing.
So the graph move downward direction in interval:
[tex](-4,-2)\text{ and }(3,7)[/tex]so strictly decreasing in range :
[tex](3,7)[/tex]
