Question 125180
I need to graph this, please help me. {{{y=-x^2+1}}}<br><br>

To graph a line, you must know at least two points along the line. Start by picking a number(prefferably low) for x. I'll pick 3. Plug this into your equation to get:
{{{y=-3^2+1}}}<br><br>

Solve the exponent:
{{{y=9+1}}}<br><br>

Add:
{{{y=10}}}<br><br>

So, this gives you an ordered pair of (3,10). If you repeat this process, you will get another ordered pair. Plot both of them and draw your line.<br><br>
