(0,33) and (4.8, 30.5) meet our mathematical conditions for this situation.
We have the parabola with equation y = 4x².
We have to determine the shape and direction of it.
If we compare it to the standard equation y = ax² + bx + c, we can see that a = 4, b = 0 and c = 0.
As the value of a is positive, the parabola will open upward.
The parameter has an absolute value greater than 1. This means that y increases "faster" relative to x that a parabola with a = 1.
This means that the parabola will be narrow about its line of symmetry which we call vertical strecth.
Answer:
Because a is positive the parabola opens upward.
Because a has an absolute value larger than 1 the parabola is narrow about its line of symmetry which we call vertical stretch.
5 by the 3 is 5X5X5 = 125
125-4 = 121
answer = 121
