28 Here are five graphs.

Five sketch graphs. A: a straight line with negative gradient and positive y-intercept. B: a U-shaped parabola through O with its minimum to the right of the y-axis. C: a reciprocal curve in the first and third quadrants. D: a straight line with positive gradient and positive y-intercept. E: a cubic curve crossing the y-axis below O

The table shows the equations of these graphs.

EquationGraph
\(y = x^2 - 4x\)
\(y = x + 3\)
\(y = x^3 - 2\)
\(y = \dfrac{1}{x}\)
\(y = 5 - 2x\)

Match the letter of each graph with its equation. (3)
