Question

This is a quadratics question and can someone help me graph this

Answer 1

If there's \(x^2\) it's a parabola.

Answer 2

I know but How Do I graph It

Answer 3

How do I make a proper table of values?

Answer 4

Do I just guess or is there a way of finding good numbers for x

Answer 5

You could make a table and pick some points. Say, -2,-1,0,1,2 ?

Answer 6

Ill try that again but last time i did it i was not getting a curve

Answer 7

The values I did were

-20
-10
0
10
20

Answer 8

For example For -10 i am getting -9 for y and for 10 i am getting 7.6 for y. This means the graph is not symmetrical

Answer 9

that just means its not symmetrical about the y axis

choose x=0,20,40,60,80,100,120

you'll find it symmetrical about x=60

Answer 10

you are looking at the graph

Answer 11

I have another question. SO this was not symmetrical along the y axis and when I was making my table of values, I was not able to get a cororect parabola. How can I fnid out wether I should make the x values all positive or negative so I do get the symmetrical point in my table of values?
