Let us first define line of symmetry of parabola :

It is the line of symmetry of a parabola that divides a parabola into two equal halves that are reflections of each other about the line of symmetry. It intersects a parabola at its vertex. It is a vertical line with the equation of x = -b/2a.

So using the formula x=-b/2a, we can find the line of symmetry of parabola here.

We are given the equation:

x^{2} -10x+21 =0

If we compare it with the quadratic equation :

ax^{2} +bx+c=0

we get a=1, b=-10 and c=21

Now plugging the values of a and b in the formula x=-b/2a,

x= \frac{-b}{2a}

x= \frac{-(-10)}{2(1)}

x=5

So the line of symmetry of given parabola is given by x=5

Option D is correct answer.

A recipe for 6 dozen cookies calls for 3/4 cup of sugar. How much sugar is needed to make 4 dozen cookies? pls show all work and
Paraphin [41]
So if 6 dozen cookies needs 3/4 cup of sugar, and we need to know how much sugar is needed to make 4 dozen, then find how much of 6 dozen 4 dozen is.

To do this, put it as a fraction:

4 dozen / 6 dozen, or 4/6, which is 2/3.

Since conveniently it calls for 3/4 cup of sugar, we can multiply that by 2/3, and we'll get 6/12, or 1/2.

So 1/2 cup of sugar is needed for 4 dozen cookies.
