Question

How do you graph `f(x)=x^2` by plotting points?

Answer 1

The graph is a parabola with a vertex of `(0,0)`.

Explanation:

Substitute `y` for `f(x)`.

`y=x^2`

Points
`x=-3,` `y=9`
`x-2,` `y=4`
`x=-1,` `y=1`
`x=0,` `y=0`
`x=1,` `y=1`
`x=2,` `y=4`
`x=3,` `y=9`

graph{y=x^2 [-12.76, 12.1, -2.015, 10.415]}
