Q:

Which of the quadratic functions has the narrowest graph? Y = 1/6x^2, y = 2x^2, y = -x^2, y = 1/8x^2

Accepted Solution

A:
y = ax^2
If the absolute value of a is <1 the graph is wider than when a = 1
If the absolute value of a is >1 the graph is narrow than when a = 1

The only function that fits that description is 
y = 2x^2
B <<< answer.
