Find the axis of symmetry and the vertex and graph the following: f(x)=(x+2)(x-4)

something noteworthy is that the independent and squared variable in this case will be the "x", namely the graph of that quadratic is a vertical parabola.

\bf f(x) = (x+2)(x-4)\implies 0=(x+2)(x-4)\implies x = \begin{cases} -2\\ 4 \end{cases} \\\\\\ \boxed{-2}\rule[0.35em]{7em}{0.25pt}0\rule[0.35em]{3em}{0.25pt}\stackrel{\downarrow }{1}\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}\boxed{4}

so the parabola has solutions at x = -2 and x = 4, and its vertex will be half-way between those two guys, namely at x = 1.

since this is a vertical parabola, its axis of symmetry, the line that splits its into twin sides, will be a vertical line, and it'll be the x-coordinate of the vertex, since the vertex hasa a coordinate of x = 1, then the axis of symmetry is the vertical line of x = 1.

frutty [35]
1. Ebony's right eye....opposite of -1.50 = 1.50
2. the rational numbers are : -1.50, 1.50, -1.00, and 0.25....these are all rational because they can be turned into fractions.
3. least to greatest : -1.50, -1.00, 0.25, 1.50
4. not sure how to answer this...negatives are always less then positives....however, with negatives,unlike positives, the larger the number, the smaller it is.
