The given curve is → x²=y, which is a parabola opening upwards and vertex at (0,0).
When it is reflected in x axis ,the curve becomes→ x²=-y
The graph of two curves are shown.
Now the curve ,x²= -y is scaled vertically by a factor of 1/8.
So, the equation of curve becomes ,→ x²= -y × 1/8
→ x² = -y/8
Plotting the graph of →x² = -y/8
The curve will shrink, as scaling is less than 1.
