Why is a quadratic function a parabola The parabola is that the x-axis advances at constant speed VT, while the y-axis advances at ^ 2. How can we deduce that y is proportional to the square of X

X = VT, y = at ^ 2. If t = x / V is substituted into the second formula, y = a (x / V) ^ 2 = A / V ^ 2 * x ^ 2, then y is proportional to the square of X
