What is the equation of the axis of symmetry for the parabola y= 1/4(x+2)^2-7

Nezavi [6.7K]

Your answer is -2 as the axis of symmetry is at -b/2a. So if you were to expand the equation, you would get y= x^2/4 +x -6 where b is 1 and 2a is ½ . Therefore -1 / ½ gives you -2

What is the inverse function for h(x) = <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7Bx%2B7%7D%20-1" id="TexFormula1" title="\sqrt

Blizzard [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = \sqrt{x + 7} - 1$

Replace x and y.

$x = \sqrt{y + 7} - 1$

Solve for y.

$x + 1 = \sqrt{y + 7}$

Square both sides.

$(x + 1) {}^{2} = y + 7$

$(x + 1) {}^{2} - 7 = y$

This is the inverse function or you can also say

${x}^{2} + 2x - 6 = y$
