The parabola y=x^2 is reflected across the x-axis and then scaled vertically by the factor of 1/8. What is the equation of the new parabola?

y = (-1/8)x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with y = x^2.  When the original parabola has been reflected across the x-axis, the pertinent equation becomes y = -x^2.

Now if this is scaled vertically by a factor of 1/8, we get:

y = (-1/8)x^2

hey seth! : )

i’m not 100% sure, but i think it’s b

hope this ya : p
