X = 4 + (x^2 - 4) / (x - 8)
x(x - 8) = 4(x - 8) + x^2 - 4
x^2 - 8x = 4x - 32 + x^2 - 4
-8x - 4x = -32 - 4
-12x = -36
x = -36/-12
x = 3

Find the axis of symmetry and the vertex and graph the following: f(x)=(x+2)(x-4)
algol [13]

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.
