-x + 2y = 4
2y = x + 4
y = 1/2x + 2.....slope here is 1/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So the slope we need is -2 (see how I flipped the slope and changed the sign)

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(-2,1)...x = -2 and y = 1
now we sub and solve for b, the y int
1 = -2(-2) + b
1 = 4 + b
1 - 4 = b
-3 = b

so ur perpendicular line is : y = -2x - 3

F(x) ≥ -(x+4)^2<br>axis of symmetry: <br>vertex:
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

so the vertex is (-4, 0) and the axis of symmetry is x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) ≥ -(x+4)^2

f(x) ≥ -(x- -4)^2

this is in the form

f(x)> a(x-h)^2 +k

where (h,k) is the vertex and h is the axis of symmetry

so the vertex is (-4, 0) and the axis of symmetry is x=-4
