Question

Graph the quadratic functions y=-2xandy=-2x2 + 4 on a separate piece of paper. Using those graphs, compare and contrast the shape and position of the graphs.​

Answer 1

Y = -2x^2

h = Xv = -B/2A = 0/-4 = 0.

k = -2*0^2 = 0.

V(0,0).

Use the following points for graphing:

Y = -2x^2.

(x,y)

(-2,-8)

(-1,-2)

V(0,0)

(1,-2)

(2,-8)

Y = -2x^2 + 4.

h = Xv = -B/2A = 0/-4 = 0.

k = Yv = -2*0^2 + 4 = 4.

V(0,4).

(-2,-4)

(-1,2)

V(0,4)

(1,2)
