Question

I need helo with Algebra ASP !!!

Answer 1

The graph of
`y=(1)/(4) x^(2)` is wider than the graph y = x² (first answer)

Explanation:

∵ y = ax² is a quadratic function

∴ If a > 1 , the graph is stretched by a factor a parallel to the y-axis and the graph become narrower than the first graph

∴ If 0< a <1, the graph is compressed by a factor a parallel to the y-axis and the graph become wider than the first graph

∵ 0<
`(1)/(4)` < 1

∴ The answer is the first one the graph of
`y=(1)/(4)x^(2)` is wider than the graph of y = x²
