Answer:
○ The graph of y = -2x² + 3 opens downward and is shifted up.
Explanation:
According to the Quadratic Equation, y = Ax² + Bx + C, C acts like a y-intercept, and in this case, since both graphs shift up [because both are positive values], we do not pay attention to those. Now, we come over to our A, which makes a BIG difference because both graphs open in opposite directions [one negative, one positive]. With this being stated, we have our answer.
