The cubic function is the name of graph that is steeper on the way up than on the way down. An absolute value function is a grpah that is shaped a bit like a y=x2 parabola.
No. A parabola can open up or down.
A parabola is the result of an equation such as y=x2, or another variation of it such as y=2x2+1. This graph is shaped like a U or an upside down U, and this is shown by making a table. For every x value, the y value is squared. For example, if x=1, y will also equal 1; if x=2, y=4; if x=3, y=9; etc. These give you the coordinates (1,1), (2,4), and (3,9). When the coordinates are graphed the U-shaped graph (parabola) is formed.
A parabola. An arch opening either north or south of the x-axis depending on the sign of the coefficient (negative opens down, positive opens up).
This equation yx3 k is that of a parabola. The variable h and k represent the coordinents of the vertex. The geometrical value k serves to move the graph of the parabola up or down along the line.
If you can mash the equation for the parabola into the form Y = Ax2 + Bx + C, then the parabola opens up if 'A' is positive, and down if 'A' is negative.
No. A parabola can open up or down.
A parabola can open left, down, right, or left on a graph, if that's what you mean:\

A parabola is a type of graph that is not linear, and mostly curved. A parabola has the "x squared" sign in it's equation. A parabola is not only curved, but all the symmetrical. The symmetrical point, the middle of the parabola is called the vertex. You can graph this graph with the vertex, x-intercepts and a y-intercept. A parabola that has a positive x squared would be a smile parabola, and the one with the negative x squared would be a frown parabola. Also, there are the parabolas that are not up or down, but sideways Those parabolas have x=y squared, instead of y = x squared.
an upside down parabola
-- Any number less than -5 is a steeper line sloping down. -- Any number greater than +5 is a steeper line sloping up.
A parabola. An arch opening either north or south of the x-axis depending on the sign of the coefficient (negative opens down, positive opens up).
A parabola opening up has a minimum, while a parabola opening down has a maximum.
Changing the constant in a function will shift the graph vertically but will not change the shape of the graph. For example, in a linear function, changing the constant term will only move the line up or down. In a quadratic function, changing the constant term will shift the parabola up or down.
This equation yx3 k is that of a parabola. The variable h and k represent the coordinents of the vertex. The geometrical value k serves to move the graph of the parabola up or down along the line.
the line goes down from left to right as the absolute value of the negative slope get bigger, the graph of the line gets steeper as the absolute value of the negative slope gets smaller, the graph of the line gets less steep ( apex )
The graph of a quadratic function is always a parabola. If you put the equation (or function) into vertex form, you can read off the coordinates of the vertex, and you know the shape and orientation (up/down) of the parabola.
