The diagram shows four graphs: a, b, c, and d. The equations are matched to the graphs as follows:
a: y =
- 2x + 1
b: y =

c: y =
+ 2x
d: y = 2x - 1
Graph A is a parabola that opens upwards and has its vertex at the origin. This matches the equation y =
.
Graph B is a cubic curve that passes through the origin and has a point of inflection at (0, 0). This matches the equation y =
.
Graph C is a straight line that passes through the origin and has a slope of 2. This matches the equation y = 2x.
Graph D is a logarithmic curve that passes through the point (1, 0). This matches the equation y = log(x).

Examples:
Some points in the solution set of the equation y =
are (1, 1), (2, 4), and (3, 9). These points are all on graph A.
Some points in the solution set of the equation y =
are (1, 1), (2, 8), and (3, 27). These points are all on graph B.
Some points in the solution set of the equation y = 2x are (1, 2), (2, 4), and (3, 6). These points are all on graph C.
Some points in the solution set of the equation y = log(x) are (1, 0), (10, 1), and (100, 2). These points are all on graph D.
The four graphs are matched to the equations y =
, y = 2x, and y = log(x), respectively.
