About how

As with any graphing problem, when doing it by hand, one chooses enough points to give the general shape of the curve. In some cases, quite a few points may be required. It is often helpful to use a spreadsheet for calculating the point values. Here, we've graphed the equations using "technology"--a graphing calculator.
