Question

find the axis of symmetry for y=x squared -4x-32. show work.

Answer 1

y=(x-8)(x+4)
-x^2+4x+y+32=0

Answer 2

I think you find the 2 x-int, and then add then up, and then divide then by 2. I'm not sure though, but you should give it a try

Answer 3

This is an equation of a parabola. So the axis of symmetry is a vertical line through the vertex.

The formula for finding the vertex is -b/2a.
