1/2 &50 0.5 hope this helps
so all those quadratics have their parent y = x², which has the graph of a "bowl".
and depending on the coefficient, the bowl is wider or not.
the larger the coefficient, the narrower the bowl, the smaller the coefficient, the wider the bowl.
well, 1/2 is smaller then 2, thus y = (1/2)x² is wider than y = 2x².
Not sure of the answer but i know what factors
p ^2 - 2p
p (p-2)
-q^2 +2q
-q (q-2)
so maybe (p-q) (p-2) (q-2)
