Answer is A. For a quadratic function, the rule at finding the points it to square the x value and then multiply by the coefficient to get the y. So....... X Y -2 2 -1 .5 0 0 1 .5 2 2
And by looking at these points, A matches perfectly
I believe the correct graph for y = 1/2 x^2 is the first graph. To graph this equation, you must create an x,y chart. Ex.) x , y -2, 2 -1, 0.5 0, 0 1, 0.5 2, 2
