What is the name of a graph shaped a bit like a y-x2 parabola but on the way up its steeper than on the way down?

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.


Sketch a rough graph of the number of hours of daylight as a function of the time of year?

That graph completely depends on your location on Earth. Any two different latitudes will produce two different graphs.


What equation has a steeper line?

For a positive number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets steeper when plotted on a graph. For a negative number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets less steep when plotted on a graph.


Without graphing how can you tell which slope is steeper?

For a positive number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets steeper when plotted on a graph. For a negative number, as the slope(y=mx+b where m is the slope) gets greater in value, the line gets less steep when plotted on a graph.
