AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a graph of a power function where the exponent is the reciprocal of a positive number. First set a numeric parameter to 2, then plot the curve y = x raised to the power of 1 over that parameter. The curve should rise from near the origin for positive x, with a decreasing slope, showing a concave-down shape. Add two text labels on the graph to indicate the characteristics of positive and reciprocal exponents, emphasizing the basic shape of a power function. This is suitable for high school math education to illustrate how the exponent affects the function's form.
