OpenStudy (phi):
draw little arrows with slope x^2 y
that is, near the x-axis and along the y-axis, draw horizontal arrows
make the arrows have positive slope in the region above the x-axis
they will tilt "more up" as you move to the left or right,
they will tilt down below the x-axis. (mirror image to the top)
OpenStudy (phi):
The first picture does not match
OpenStudy (nathanjhw):
I think it is Graph IV @phi
OpenStudy (nathanjhw):
So if it needs to be positive in the 2nd region, then it would be graph III.

Wait, I think I am referring to these wrongly.
OpenStudy (nathanjhw):
I originally thought it was the second graph shown.
OpenStudy (phi):
to be sure, this one looks like a good choice:
OpenStudy (nathanjhw):
Yes, that is the one I originally meant by graph IV.

Would you mind helping me with my other question?
