<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

- The vertex of the parabola is located on the point (-0.625,-2.563)

- The axis of symmetry of the parabola is:

x=-0.625

<h2>Why?</h2>

To solve the problem, we need to remember the standard form of the equation of the parabola:

y=ax^{2} +bx+c

Also, we need to remember the way to find the vertex of the parabola.

We can find using the following formula

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

Then, we need to substitute "x" into the equation of the parabola to find the "y" value.

Also, we can find the axis of symmetry of a parabola with the same equation that we found the "x-coordinate" of the vertex, since in that coordinate is located the vertical line that divides the parabola into two symmetic pats (axis of symmetry).

So, we are given the parabola:

y=4x^{2} +5x-1

Where,

a=4\\b=5\\c=-1

Then,

Finding the vertex, we have:

x=\frac{-b}{2a}\\\\x=\frac{-5}{2*(4)}=\frac{-5}{8}=-0.625

Now, substituting the x-coordinate value into the equation of the parabola to find the y-coordinate value, we have:

y=4(-0.625)^{2} +5(-0.625)-1

y=4*(0.39)-3.13-1=-2.563

Then, we know that the vertex of the parabola is located on the point (-0.625,-2.563)

Also, we know that the axis of symmetry of the parabola is:

x=-0.625

Have a nice day!
