Question

For the quadratic function, identify any vertical scaling or reflection. Also state if the graph opens upward or downward, and whether the graph would be narrower or wider than the basic parabola y = x².f(x) = 1/4x^2 The graph of f(x) has vertical (Select an answer contraction or expansion) by__, has (Select an answer ?, no, or an) x-axis reflection, faces (Select an answer downward or upward) and is (Select an answer narrower or wider) than y = x².

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The parent functiuon is given below as

`y=x^2`

The graph for the above function is given below as

The second function is given below as

`f(x)=(1)/(4)x^2`

The image of the graph above is given below as

On combining the two graphs, we will have the image below

Hence,

The final answers are

f(x) has a vertical contraction by 4 and has NO x-axis reflection

Faces UPWARDS and is WIDER than y=x²
