Question

Part 1: Complete Independently

Use any graphing technology of your choice and answer the following questions about your observations. Please use complete sentences.

Scenario 1:
A.Graph y = –2x2 + 6. Describe what you see.






B.–2x2 + 6 is what kind of polynomial? Classify the polynomial by degree and number of terms.






C.Next, graph y = (-1/10)x2 + 6. Describe what you see. How is what you observe here different from what you observed in part A?






D.If you wanted a really steep hill for your roller coaster, would you use the graph of y = –2x2 + 6 or
y = (-1/10)x2 + 6?

Answer 1

complete independently means ask everyone on os!

Answer 2

lol

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

it's linear equations if you want to draw/graph them an easy way is to find a point on the x axis and a point on the y axis. then draw a line through those
points.


to get the point which intercepts at an axis. on the x axis y is always 0 and on the y axis x is always zero.

so to find the point on x, make y zero and then solve for x, that x will be the (x,0) and when you do the same for y its (0,y)

Answer 5

that's true but all these are quadratic, not linear.

Answer 6

this is what happens when you decide to cheat...
