Default Scatter chart parabola


I am attempting to use Excel for my BA class. I have a quadratic
function which gives me a parabola. However, when I try to graph it in
excel instead of the parabola opening up or down it opens sideways. The
points are correct, the connecting lines are what is not correct. How
can I fix this so that the parabola will go through the points the
correct way and open downward instead of sideways?

my points are as follows
x y
9 387
0 144
-6 0
24 0


Thanks, Chester
