Question 750560: Hi, I have an online algebra course and sometimes I find it difficult to solve equations. I was wondering if someone could please help me with this problem? Thank you so much(:
The question is:
Which of the following parabolas match the following graph below?
And then since I couldn't drag and drop the image, I think but am not sure that two points that could be used were 1 and -1.However, to be sure, you can, I believe, go to this link and it should pull up the image.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!

you have a parabola y=ax%5E2 with a vertex at origin. From the graph I can see that if x=-1 => y=4 and if x=1 => y=4, then you have
y=4x%5E2
