Question

Which of the following is the equation of the axis of symmetry of the quadratic equation y = 2x2 + 24x + 62?

Answer 1

ppp please help me, I have no idea how to do this

Answer 2

Your equation is in the form y=ax^2+bx+c

2=a
24=b
62=c

formula for axis of symmetry is x=-b/2a

x=-24/(2*2)
x=?

Answer 3

x = –6

x = 6

x = –10

x = 10

these be the possible answers...

Answer 4

And if you do have the time, i would very much appreciate an explanation to the problem ...... Describe the differences between the graph of y = –3(x + 7)2 – 10 and the standard position graph of y = x2.

Answer 5

Did you read my post? All thats left to do is -24/(2*2)

Answer 6

so -6 yea?

Answer 7

Right

Answer 8

thank you kind sir, I owe you one ;)
