Data from an experiment may result in a graph indicating exponential growth ... in the form of the equation of a straight line \(y = mx + c\). Shown below is a straight line graph when ...

The coefficient of \(x^2\) is positive, so the graph will be a positive U-shaped curve with a turning point and line of symmetry at \(x = −0.5\). To find where the graph crosses the \(y\)-axis ...
