What shape will the graph of y=xsquare+2 be? How can you tell. justify your prediction by making a table and graphing y=xsquare+2 on graph paper.\r

\n" ); document.write( "y=x^2 is a parabola that opens upward (coefficient of x^2 is positive) with its vertex at (0,0)
\n" ); document.write( "y=x^2+2 is the same parabola which is bumpt up 2 units.The graph below illustrates this. The parabola in red is the basic parabola and the parabola in green bumps it up 2 units.\r
