8. PLEASE HELP ME
Order the group of quadratic functions from widest to narrowest graph.
y= 6x2, y= -4.5x2, y= -x2

A. y= -4.5x2, y= -x2, y= 6x2

B. y= 6x2, y= -4.5x2, y= -x2

C. y= -x2, y= 6x2, y= -4.5x2

D. y= -x2, y= -4.5x2, y= 6x2


Sagot :

Answer:

B. y= 6x2, y= -4.5x2, y= -x2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 6x2, y = −4.5x2, y = −x2

This should be correct )

 

To solve this problem you must keep on mind the following information: By definition, a quadratic function has the following form:  

 y=ax^{2}+bx+c


Where a
 is the leading coefficient.

If the leading coeficient is closer to zero, the parabola is widest,if it has a larger positive or negative value, the parabola is narrowest.

Therefore, by knowing the information above, you have that the answer is:

y=- x^{2}  \\ y=-4.5 x^{2}  \\ y=6 x^{2}
