The graph of y = –0.2x2 is the graph of y = x2. a. narrow than and opens in the same direction b. wider than and opens in the same direction c. narrow than and opens in the opposite direction d. wider than and opens in the opposite direction the answer is =)

To solve this completion exercise you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have the first function:

 y=-0.2x²

 When you give different values to "x" and plot it as it is shown in the graph attached, you obtain a parabola.

 2. Now, you have the second function:

 y=x²

 When you give different values to "x" and plot it as it is shown in the graph attached, you obtain a parabola.

 3. When you see the two graphs attached, you can conclude the the answer is the option D):

 D. Wider than and opens in the opposite direction
   

Rand 1/2 probs wrong.
