if the parabola open upward a is?
positive.
If a is positive which way does the parabola open x ay2?
Iām assuming you mean x = ay^2 the answer would be Right. Because it is positive. hope this helps! (:
The equation below describes a parabola. If a is positive which way does the parabola open y ax2?
right apex. hope that helps
What way does the parabola open if a is greater than 0?
If a is greater than zero then the parabola opens upward.
What does changing the value of a from a positive number to a negative number cause a parabola to do?
Assuming that a is the leading coefficient of the equation of the parabola, changing it from positive to negative will reflect the parabola along a horizontal line through its minimum - which will then become its maximum.
