The equation for the axis of symmetry would look like x=-b/2a
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thats the answer?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No, that's the formula to get the axis of symmetry
OpenStudy (anonymous):
whats the answer tho? ;/

Do you know how to factor?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Factor the equation
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(x-_)(x-_)

So you already have the answer for the vertex
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what about the coordinates and axis of symmetry?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The axis of symmetry is 3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thats all i need to write down?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x=3

So I write '' Vertex : (3. -5) & Axis of symmetry: x = 3'' ? @faith2012
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Vertex: (3, 5), Axis of symmetry: x=3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yay thank you sm! (: what about 7. y = 4x^2 + 8x + 7? :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Axis of symmetry is -1

wait is the vertex on the last one (3,5) or (3, -5)?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I mean on the first one^^
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oops, it's (3, 5)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
not negative?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No.
