To determine whether a parabola is fat or skinny, you can look at the coefficient of the quadratic term in its equation, typically in the form (y = ax^2 + bx + c). If the absolute value of (a) is greater than 1, the parabola is skinny; if it is between 0 and 1, the parabola is fat. Additionally, a larger absolute value of (a) results in a steeper curve, while a smaller absolute value leads to a wider spread.

How do you know if a parabola is skinny or fat?
If the number in front of x squared is a number greater than 1, the parabola will start becoming thinner. The opposite occurs when the number is a fraction.
How do you find a quadratic equation from a graph?
The general form of a quadratic is "y = ax2 + bx + c". For graphing, the leading coefficient "a" indicates how "fat" or how "skinny" the parabola will be.For | a | > 1 (such as a = 3 or a = -4), the parabola will be "skinny", because it grows more quickly (three times as fast or four times as fast, respectively, in the case of our sample values of a). For| a | < 1 (such as a = 1/3 or a = -1/4 ), the parabola will be "fat", because it grows more slowly (one-third as fast or one-fourth as fast, respectively, in the examples). Also, if a is negative, then the parabola is upside-down.
