ANSWER


y=0.15x^2, y=2x^2,y=4x^2

Step-by-step explanation

The given quadratic functions are;


y = 4 {x}^(2)

y = 2 {x}^(2)
and


y = 0.15 {x}^(2)

A fractional coefficient indicates a horizontal stretch.

The smaller the coefficient, the wider the stretch for

|a| < 1
and


a \\e0

Also

|a| > 1
indicates a horizontal compression.

The higher the value the narrower the graph.


Therefore from widest to narrowest, we have,


y=0.15x^2, y=2x^2,y=4x^2

See graph.
