Question

Which of the following is the graph of ƒ (x ) = x 2?

Answer 1

Answer:

Graph represented by 1st option is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation $f(x)=x^2$. We are asked to choose the graph for our given equation.

We know that our given equation represents a parabola, whose vertex is at origin.

Upon looking at our given graphs, we can see that 1st graph represents an upward opening parabola centered at origin, therefore, option A is the correct choice.

The 2nd graph represents an absolute value function, whose vertex is at origin, therefore, 2nd option is not a correct choice.

The 3rd graph represents a line that passes through origin, therefore, 3rd option is not a correct choice as well.

Answer 2

The first one, the one that is curved
