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
The answer is B
Have a good day!
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
imagine the shape is flipped and standing up. that's how you can compare both images.
1. Use Difference of squares: a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)
(x+k)(x-k)=0
2. Solve for x and k
x=+-k
k=+-x
