The graph of h (x) = 3x^2 is a curved "bowl" like shape that opens upward. The curve is called a parabola. The two ends go on forever upward. It has symmetry along the y axis.

In contrast, the graph f (x) = x is a straight line that goes through (0,0) and (1,1). This is known as a linear equation.
