The graph of y = 12x2 will be more narrow than the graph of the parent function, y = x². question 2 options: true false the quadratic function shown can be written in the form y = ax². determine the equation of the quadratic function. question 4 options: y = x² y = -x² y = 2x² y = -2x²

The graph of the funtion  is more narrow than the parent function  so the answer is true.  It is more narrow due to the value of a, the coefficient of x².  When a > 1, it shrinks the graph.  If 0 < a < 1, then the graph would stretch.

Based on the graph attached, we know a will not be a negative number, since the graph is open upward instead of downward.  A negative coefficient "flips" the graph.  Since it goes through the point (1, 2) it will not be the parent function y = x²; if you substitute 1 in for x you would get a value of 1, not 2.  Therefore the choice must be y = 2x².

For the first question the answer is a, for the second c, for the third d, for the 4th b, for the 5th a
