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

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

C. Next, graph y = (-1/10)x^2 + 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 = –2x^2 + 6 or
y = (-1/10)x^2 + 6?
