The shape of the graph of the function y = x² + 2 is a parabola that opens up i.e. the u-shape
What shape will the graph of the function be?
From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:
y = x² + 2
The above function is a quadratic function
The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the x² term
So, we have
leading coefficient = 1
From the above, we can see that
The leading coefficient is positive
This means that the function is a parabola that opens up
The graph is added as an attachment as proof
