Question

State one similarity and two differences between quadratic and absolute value graphs.

Answer 1

Answer:

Similarity: Vertical symmetry.

Difference: Vertex are different,

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to state one similarity and two differences between quadratic and absolute value graphs.

First of all, let us graph standard quadratic and standard

Similarity: Both quadratic functions and absolute value functions have vertical symmetry. This means if we draw a line crossing from the vertex of both functions, the line divides functions into mirror images of each other.

Differences:

(1) The vertex of absolute value function is v-shaped, while vertex of quadratic equation is bell shaped.

(2) The quadratic function grows at a very fast rate (due to exponent $x^2$) than absolute value function.

Answer 2

Answer:

Linear functions are graphed as straight lines because the x variable is not raised to any exponent. They are like the flat bridge. Quadratic functions are typically in the form y = ax2 + bx + c. Quadratic functions will always have the x variable to the second power.
