Do you want to graph these? I'll do the first two to get you started.

# 1

In order to graph , we need to plot some points. To do that, we need to plug in some x values to get some y values


So let's find the first point:



Start with the given function


Plug in


Raise -3 to the 2nd power to get 9


Multiply -1 and 9 to get -9


So when , we have


So our 1st point is (-3,-9)


-------------- Let's find another point --------------


Start with the given function


Plug in


Raise -2 to the 2nd power to get 4


Multiply -1 and 4 to get -4


So when , we have


So our 2nd point is (-2,-4)


-------------- Let's find another point --------------


Start with the given function


Plug in


Raise -1 to the 2nd power to get 1


Multiply -1 and 1 to get -1


So when , we have


So our 3rd point is (-1,-1)


-------------- Let's find another point --------------


Start with the given function


Plug in


Raise 0 to the 2nd power to get 0


Multiply -1 and 0 to get 0


So when , we have


So our 4th point is (0,0)


-------------- Let's find another point --------------


Start with the given function


Plug in


Raise 1 to the 2nd power to get 1


Multiply -1 and 1 to get -1


So when , we have


So our 5th point is (1,-1)


-------------- Let's find another point --------------


Start with the given function


Plug in


Raise 2 to the 2nd power to get 4


Multiply -1 and 4 to get -4


So when , we have


So our 6th point is (2,-4)


-------------- Let's find another point --------------


Start with the given function


Plug in


Raise 3 to the 2nd power to get 9


Multiply -1 and 9 to get -9


So when , we have


So our 7th point is (3,-9)


Now lets make a table of the values we have calculated 



 xy



 -3-9
 

 -2-4
 

 -1-1
 

 00
 

 1-1
 

 2-4
 

 3-9
Now plot the points



Now connect the points to graph (note: the more points you plot, the easier it is to draw the graph)
