Question

In a mathematical problem, Samuel was provided with the values of s, u, and a and the value of t was asked to be calculated. Samuel substituted those values into the second equation of motion and got a quadratic equation in t as a result. He thought of plotting a graph taking t in the x-axis. How will the graph look like?

  1. Straight line
  2. Parabola
  3. Circle
  4. Random

hintHint:

Basic Graphs

The correct answer is: Parabola


    • The graph of a Quadratic equation is a parabola.
