Comparing Two Functions

The graph illustrates two quadratic functions.

The curvature of y2, compared to y1 is narrower and y1 is wider.

Compared to y1,y2's graph is shifted vertically. I see this in the graph by noting that the minimum point of y is (0,-100) is also the maximum point of y2.which is (0,-100)
There is no horizontal shift because the lines have the same pattern horizontally. The minimum and maximum line up at x=0.
