    There isn't one simple answer, but there are several different simple answers.

    That's because there are different kinds of acceleration and different kinds of

    graphs, and you've left us in the dark on both of those scores.

    - - If the constant acceleration involves increasing speed, and the graph

    is a speed/time graph, then the graph is a straight line sloping up.

    - - If the constant acceleration involves increasing speed, and the graph

    is a distance/time graph, then the graph is half of a parabola, opening

    upward.

    - - If the constant acceleration involves decreasing speed, and the graph

    is a speed/time graph, then the graph is a straight line sloping down.

    - - If the constant acceleration involves decreasing speed, and the graph

    is a distance/time graph, then the graph is half of a parabola, opening

    downward.

    - - If the constant acceleration involves changing direction only, and the

    graph is a speed/time graph, then the graph is a straight horizontal line.

    - - If the constant acceleration involves changing direction only, and the

    graph is a distance/time graph, then the graph is half of a parabola,

    opening upward.

    - - If the constant acceleration involves changing direction only, and the

    graph is a displacement/time graph, then the graph is a 'rectified' sine

    function of time.
