to derive their graphs
It's about deriving the graph of a function from its analytical definition.

Caroline Clarke
: Given the first sentence, this seems to be the one - i.e. to be able to draw the graph from the expression (e.g. draw a parabola from y=x^2)

graph the functions / determine a function from its graph
"deducir las gráficas" to me seems ambiguous enough to cover both activities, which are standard and complementary when teaching trigonometry. You need to either take a given function, analyze it, and graph it, or take a given graph, analyze it, and produce the corresponding function.
Either way, a standard term for creating a graph from a function is "graphing the function"
For analyzing a graph, you could say "determine the function" or "find the function" from its graph. I prefer not to use "derive" because it is sometimes used to mean "take the derivative of", which is another operation entirely.

Example sentence:
"Let's trying graphing another parabola where a = 1, b = -2 and c = 0."
