well the x- value in the vertex is the line of symmetry. so if you have a parabola \[y = ax^2 + bx + c\] then the line of symmetry is \[x = \frac{-b}{2a}\] substitute the values of a and b for each equation and you'll find one will have a negative value. That will be the answer
um confused because i need to chose more than one i think one is number 1
ok, so the 1st parabola has a = -8 and b = 4, then \[x = \frac{-4}{2 \times -8}\] what's the value..?
Oh, and I think you'll find there is only 1 solution
so only one asnwer that is number one!
???????
I posted what you need to do for the 1st parabola... above... what is the value of x = (-4)/(2x-8)....?
x = 3 i think :/
are u there :(
if you evaluate \[x = \frac{-4}{2 \times - 8} = \frac{-4}{-16} = \frac{1}{4}\] so you get a positive x value.. so you can ignore option 1. so now repeat the precess for options 2,3 and 4
