Graph the quadratic functions y = -2x2 and y = -2x2 + 4 on a seperate piece of paper. Using those graphs, compare and contrast the shape and position of the graphs.

OpenStudy (shayaan_mustafa):

is your function looks like \[\huge y=-2x ^{2}\]and\[\huge y=-2x ^{2}+4\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (shayaan_mustafa):

for \[y=-2x ^{2}\] your graph will be a parabola(little compressed) but reflected about x-axis for\[y=-2x ^{2}+4\]your graph will be same as upper graph with 4 units shifted in +y direction. DOES IT HELP?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thank you very much

OpenStudy (shayaan_mustafa):

you are ever welcome.
