surjithayer:

\[y=a(x-h)^2+k\] to find axis of symmetry put x-h=0 x=h axis of symetry is x=h where (h,k) is vertex.

kekeman:

Ok so what do i do because i have no idea where to start

surjithayer:

for f(x) \[f(x)=-4(x-8)^2+3\] compare with \[y=a(x-h)^2+k\] x-h=?

surjithayer:

put x-8=0 axis of symmetry is x=8

surjithayer:

vertex for h(x)=?

kekeman:

Ok so the axis of symmetry for f(x) is x = 8

surjithayer:

yes

surjithayer:

do you know the vertex of h(x)?

kekeman:

No sir

surjithayer:

it is the highest point of h(x),which has coordinates (3,2) so axis of symmetry is x=3

kekeman:

Ohhh ok now i see

kekeman:

So question does x = 8 and x = 3 split each one of their functions in half?

surjithayer:

for f(x),it is x=8 and for h(x) ,it is x=3

kekeman:

Ok thanks but we need to tell an explanation on how we got the answers

kekeman:

Nvm i got it thanks for the help
