How do I create a Cartesian Plane Graph in Excel Spreadsheet. I have to show
the change in the coefficient of the constant function, linear function, the
quadratic, the cubic function, the square root function and the absolute
value function.
 
You need to make an XY chart.
To answer every part of your question would take a lng time.
Suggest you get familiar with the basic steps in Excel so you know how to
use formulas and make chart.
A good start would be the book Excel for Dummies

Quadratic: with x-values in A1:A10; in B1 enter =2*A1^2+3*A1-4 and copy this
down to B10. Select A1:B1O and use the Chart Wizard (assuming you are not
using Excel 2007) to make an XY chart.

Square root: =SQRT(A1) but A1 must be positive

Absolute value: =ABS(A1) where A1 can have either sign
