Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = - 2x² + 4x - 2
To find the y- intercept set x = 0
f(0) = 0 + 0 - 2 = - 2 ← y- intercept
The equation of the axis of symmetry is of the form x = c
where c is the value of the x- coordinate the line goes through.
Given the equation in standard form
with a = - 2, b = 4 then the axis of symmetry is
x = - = -
= 1
Equation of axis of symmetry is x = 1
