it is infinite and is a parabola
Its first derivative is non-zero

That is not a proper answer. All that it means is that the relationship between the two variables in question (x and y) is some nonlinear continuous function.
- It need not be infinite - a graph can be a circle: that is curved but is certainly not infinite. It could also be an ellipse, a hyperbola, a polynomial of any degree other than 1, an exponential or logarithmic curve, a trigonometric curve, or any combination of the above - as well as other curves.
- The point about the first derivative is true, but that also applies to any straight line that is not horizontal.
Actually the first derivative can be zero at specific point(s), but this is specifically true whereas a non-zero value is generally true.

What does a curved line represent on a time vs distance graph?
The curved line on a time vs. distance graph represents that the object is accelerating.
What is a curve in math?
it is a line on a graph that is curved
What does a curved line on a graph indicate?
Nonlinearities. To be more specific you would have to provide more information.
Why is the line curved on a distance vs time graph?
The object is accelerating or decelerating in the radial direction.
What does a curved line on a distance versus time graph tell you?
It tells you that the velocity of the body is not constant. There is acceleration or deceleration.
What does it mean when there is a curved line going upwards on a graph?
When there is a curved line going upwards on a graph it means the distance is increasing
What is a curved line graph called?
nonlinear line
What does a curved line represent on a time vs distance graph?
The curved line on a time vs. distance graph represents that the object is accelerating.
What is a curve in math?
it is a line on a graph that is curved
What if your data doesn't graph into a straight line?
Many sets of data do not form into straight lines. If by "What if" you mean how to plot a line onto this graph. Then simply draw a curved line of best fit.
Can you use a curved line in a finite graph?
Yes.
What is the name of a curved line on a graph?
price or equilibrium A curve
What kind of line on a distance-versus-time graph indicates that the objects is accelerating?
Any curved line on a distance/time graph indicates the presence of accelerationthat's causing a change in the magnituide of the velocity. But if the object's speedis constant, and the acceleration is changing its direction only, then the line on theD-T graph would remain straight.In summary:Every curved line on a D-T graph reveals acceleration, but not every accelerationproduces a curved line on a D-T graph.
What is the name of a curved ine graph?
The name of a curved line gragh is a pie chart or a circle gragh.
What is the definition of the term 'curved'?
"Curved" refers to something that deviates from a straight line. It may refer to a bend in the road, a line on a graph, or the trajectory of a baseball.
How do you tell whether a graph shows a constant or variable rate of change?
The slope of each point on the line on the graph is the rate of change at that point. If the graph is a straight line, then its slope is constant. If the graph is a curved line, then its slope changes.
Why don't all the points fall exactly on the curved line on a line graph?
You don't say what the curved line is so it is impossible to say. Is it a case of insufficient accuracy of measurement?
