Answer 15

graph y = (-1/10)x^2 + 6. Describe what you see. And how is it different from the graph of y = –2x^2 + 6?

Answer 16

u_u" Can we just use graphing technology?

Answer 17

Yes, it's encouraged haha

Answer 18

Mk, well the -1/10 would be -0.1, therefore making the parabola wider. When it's between 0 - 1 it's wider. Above or below the it narrower.
