Part 1: Scenario 1: Graph y = –2x2 + 6. Describe what you see. –2x2 + 6 is what kind of polynomial? Classify the polynomial by degree and number of terms. Next, graph y = (-1/10)x2 + 6. Describe what you see. How is what you observe here different from what you observed in part A? If you wanted a really steep hill for your roller coaster, would you use the graph of y = –2x2 + 6 or y = (-1/10)x2 + 6? Why? What part of the expression affected the steepness? Using the same reasoning from part D, create an equation that will be steeper than both equations, and explain your reasoning.

i can do the first question if you like.

its going to reflect down and its going to cross the y-axis at 0,6

part 1 |dw:1418400152687:dw| It is badly drawen, but I hope you understood what I meant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The graph is pointed down It is the parabola with leading coefficient -2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It has y-intercept 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

part 2 The degree of the polynomial is 2, because it is the biggest power in whole expression. There are 2 terms in it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The polynomial is binomial

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I understand the graph its good good drawing :)
