Example 2.8.1

Graph $\left(f\left(x\right)\,x\right)$ for the function $f\left(x\right)\=x^2\,0\le x\le 2$. $$ Solution $$ Graphing parametrically with the Plot Builder •  Type the list $\left[x^2\,x\right]$   •  Context Panel: Plot Builder≻2-D plot (parametric) In Global Options, set scaling to constrained, and the view for both axes to $\left[0\,2\right]$.   •  The curve drawn is the graph of $f^{-1}\left(x\right)\=\sqrt{x}$. $\left[x^2\,x\right]$$\to$ Graphing parametrically with the plot  command $\mathrm{plot}\left(\left[x^2\,x\,x\=0..2\right]\right)$ $$
