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

OpenStudy (aravindg):

did you try drawing the graphs?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did draw them. I just don't understand how to compare and constrast them.

OpenStudy (aravindg):

well you see both are hat shaped parabolas

OpenStudy (aravindg):

infact the only difference with the two graphs is that -2x^2+4 graph is for units above the -2x^2 graph !!

OpenStudy (aravindg):

*4 units

OpenStudy (aravindg):
