Answer:

Slowing down

Explanation:

Carlos is travelling to the right as indicated by his velocity, so his velocity is +5m/s. He is also accelerating to the left which is the opposite direction to his velocity so his acceleration is -1.2m/s2 to the right.

Since his acceleration is negative relative to his velocity and direction of motion, his speed is decreasing and he is slowing down.

Hope this helped!
