1. Describe the two types of stretch and compress that can happen to a parent function

The simplest parabola is y = x2, whose graph is shown at the right. The graph passes through the origin (0,0), and is contained in Quadrants I and II.

This graph is known as the "Parent Function" for parabolas, or quadratic functions. All other parabolas, or quadratic functions, can be obtained from this graph by one or more transformations.

The "parent" parabola can give birth to a myriad of other parabolic shapes through the process of transformations.

Brush off your memories of transformations and let's take a quick look at what is possible.

When graphing quadratic functions (parabolas), keep in mind that two forms of equations may be used:

   y = ax2 + bx + c   or   y = a(x - h)2 + k

Step-by-step explanation:

answer: 1722

step-by-step explanation:

given: the mass of saturn=

the mass of mercury=

the number of times the mass of saturn is greater than the mass of mercury

hence, the mass of saturn is 1722 times greater than the mass of mercury.

pretty sure 750 each month!
