Question

Order from the narrowest to widest: y = 0.5x², y = 5x², y = 6.5x², y = 0.75x².

A. y = 0.5x², y = 0.75x², y = 5x², y = 6.5x²

B. y = 0.75x², y = 0.5x², y = 5x², y = 6.5x²

C. y = 0.5x², y = 0.75x², y = 6.5x², y = 5x²

D. y = 0.75x², y = 0.5x², y = 6.5x², y = 5x²

Answer 1

The order from narrowest to widest is y = 0.5x², y = 0.75x², y = 5x², y = 6.5x².

Step-by-step explanation:

The order from narrowest to widest is:

1. y = 0.5x²
2. y = 0.75x²
3. y = 5x²
4. y = 6.5x²

To determine the order, we can look at the coefficient of the x² term. The narrower the parabola, the smaller the coefficient. So, the parabola with the smallest coefficient, 0.5, is the narrowest. The parabola with the largest coefficient, 6.5, is the widest.
