we know that
The equation in vertex form of a vertical parabola is equal to
where
(h,k) is the vertex of the parabola
and the axis of symmetry is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex
so
-----> equation of the axis of symmetry
In this problem we have
Convert to vertex form
Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation
Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side
Rewrite as perfect squares
the vertex is the point 
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
The axis of symmetry is
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
Step-by-step explanation:
The negative of a number may sometimes be greater than the number itself.
The negative of a negative number is positive which will give a greater number than the number itself. But the negative of a positive number is negative which is smaller than the number itself
Let us take a few examples
-(-1) = 1, 1>-1
-(1) = -1, 1>-1
10 and I know this because I just looked it up hopefully you have a great rest of ur day

Given:
The vertices of a polygon QRST are T(-2, 3), Q(1, 5), R(3, -1) and S(0, 0).
To find:
The vertices for 
.
Solution:
The rule represents refection of polygon QRST across the x-axis.
If a figure is reflected across the x-axis, then
Using this rule, we get
Therefore, the vertices for are T'(-2, -3), Q'(1, -5), R'(3, 1) and S'(0, 0).
