### Graph \( f(x) \)
To the right of the questions, there is a graph of the function \( f(x) \) on a coordinate plane. This plane has the \( x \)-axis ranging from -10 to 10 and the \( y \)-axis ranging from -10 to 10. The graph is divided into a grid with major gridlines representing integer values on both axes.
Below the graph, there are tools for drawing:
1. A straight line tool.
2. A parabolic curve tool.
3. An exponential decay or growth curve tool.
4. A circle or ellipse tool.
