Question

Identify the axis of symmetry for the graph of g(x) = 12(x + 6)2 - 5.
x=?

I thought it was 6 but I was wrong.

Answer 1

Can you find the vertex?

Answer 2

yea, i think so. unless im doing it wrong?

Answer 3

\[y=a(x-h)^2+k\]

Answer 4

Make your equation match that one EXACTLY

Answer 5

\[y=12(x- -6)^2+-5\]
\[y=a(x-h)^2+k\]

Answer 6

What is a? What is h? What is k?

Answer 7

X=-6 axis of symmetry

Answer 8

Yep. do you understand or are you just copying Luis/

Answer 9

Well I see that you have several others who want to help you now. Good Bye.

Answer 10

I understand it Mertsj, I worked through the whole problem earlier and got 6. I can see I just made a small error on the signs. But thank you for helping me!
