The graph of a quadratic function y = ax² is a VERTICAL parabola open upward or downward depending whether a (the coefficient of x) is positive or negative
The graph y² = ax or y = √ax is a HORIZONTAL parabola open to the right or to the left depending whether a (the coefficient of x) is positive or negative
B. 9*10^16 (because in question give it)
B. 3*10^9 (because answer to first question is divided by seconds in one year (365*24*60*60).
C is the answer to the problem
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Insert the given x values for the given equation to find the corresponding y coordinate:


Insert -6:

Simplify multiplication (when multiplying a negative and a positive, the result will always be negative):

Simplify (when subtracting from a negative number, add the values, but keep the negative symbol):

Insert -1:

Insert 1:

:Done
16 and -16 have an absolute value of 16
