PlotLabels with equations not expressions












3












$begingroup$


I want to label the curves in Plot with their equations (eg. "y = x^2") not just their expressions (eg. x^2). There has to be a way to do this, but I cannot figure it out.



shadeBoundedRegion[top_, bottom_, a_, b_]:= Plot[{Max[top, bottom], top, bottom}, {x,a,b}, Filling -> {3 -> {1}}, PlotLabels->{"" ,Above,Above}];
shadeBoundedRegion[4,x^2,-3,3]


I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere, but I could not find it.

          Use



          PlotLabels -> {"", HoldForm[y = x^2], HoldForm[y = 4]}


          in the definition of shadeBoundedRegion.



          shadeBoundedRegion[4, x^2, -3, 3]
