Question

If you wanted a really steep hill a roller coaster, would you use the graph of y = –2x^2 + 6 or y = (-1/10)x^2 + 6? Why? What part of the expression would affect the steepness?

Answer 1

You would use y = -2x^2 + 6 because the curve of the parabola is much thinner, causing it to be steeper. The part of the equation that affects the steepness is the coefficient of the x^2 variable. Hope that helps!
