A vertical line test can be used to determine whether a graph is a function or not. If a vertical line intersects the graph more than once, then the graph is not a function.

So if a vertical line hits a graph in more than one place, it is the same as having the same x-value paired up with two different y-values, and the graph is not that of a function.
Test it by the vertical line test. That is, if a vertical line passes through the two points of the graph, this graph is not the graph of a function.
Whether the graph has 0, 1 or 2 points at which it crosses (touches) the x-axis.
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.
The slope of your quadratic equation in general form or standard form.
draw them both out on a graph and then draw the line y=x through the origin. If one function is a reflection of the other, it is the inverse
