What is the equation for the axis of symmetry for this quadratic function

Mathematics

Answer: x = -2

Step-by-step explanation: That axis of symmetry is the

fold line or the line that splits the parabola down the middle.

The line that makes this parabola symmetrical is x = -2.

So our axis of symmetry is x = -2.

An easy way to find it is average the zeros (x-intercepts) and multiply by 1/2.

So here, -4 + 0 is -4 and -4(1/2) is -2.

Answer:

The answer to your question is  x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

Identify the kind of curve. This is a vertical parabola that opens upwards.

The axis of symmetry is the line that divides the parabola into two identical sections.

This line must be a vertical line that passes through the Vertex.

The Vertex is the lowest point of the parabola.  Vertex = (-2, -4).

Then, the axis of symmetry must be x = -2

What is the standard form of this function?<br> F(x) = -(x-4)^2 + 2
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

f (x) = -2 (x + 6)^2 + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f (x) = -2x^2 - 24x - 70 <--- divide out -2 out of the first two terms...

f (x) = -2 (x^2 + 12x) - 70 <-- divide the x coefficient by 2 and then square it, then add AND subtract it)  

f (x) = -2 (x^2 + 12x + (12/2)^2 - (12/2)^2) - 70  

f (x) = -2 (x^2 + 12x + 36 - 36) - 70 <--- distribute the -2 onto -36 to get it out of the brackets..  

f (x) = -2 (x^2 + 12x + 36) + 72 - 70 <-- combine constants and factor perfect square trinomial...  

f (x) = -2 (x + 6)^2 + 2 <-- standard form...
