Which of the following is a disadvantage to using equations?
Unanswerable in current form. Perhaps an"equation chart" is a table of values?
Just like any other equation, you can set up a table of x values, and calculate the corresponding y values. Then plot the points on the graph. In this case, it helps to have some familiarity with quadratic equations (you can find a discussion in algebra books), and recognize (from the form of the equation) whether your quadratic equation represents a parabola, a circle, an ellipse, or a hyperbola.
table of values,x and y-intercept and slope and y-intercept
I would set up a table of values and calculate several of the values of the variables (I would try to calculate the "interesting" values setting one to zero and calculating the other(s), guessing at a maximum or minimum value etc. Then I would plot the values on graph paper.
