Five sketch graphs: A a reciprocal curve, B an n-shaped parabola with maximum on the positive y-axis, C a cubic through the origin, D a u-shaped parabola with minimum on the negative y-axis, E a straight line with negative gradient
(a) Write down the letter of the graph that could have the equation \(y = 5 - x^2\) (1)
(b) Write down the letter of the graph that could have the equation \(y = 2x^3\) (1)
