Question

What is the equation of the line of symmetry for the graph of y = -2(x - 4)2 + 3?

Answer 1

For a quadratic equation given in the vertex form as:\[\bf y=a(x-h)^2+k\]The equation of the line of symmetry is at \(\bf x = h\). @nijalww Can you figure out the equation of the line of symmetry now?

Answer 2

x=4? @genius12

Answer 3

Correct @nijalww

Answer 4

This works because \(\bf (h,k)\) is the vertex of the parabola given in that form hence
\(\bf x=h\) must be the equation of the line of symmetry. So you got it. @nijalww

Answer 5

Thank you so much, I'll give you a mental now ;)

Answer 6

yw, btw, fan? =[ lol @nijalww
